BSM is to manage four containerships acquired at auction by an investor group represented by its parent Schulte Group.
The first of the ice-class feeder quartet, the 1,636-teu Eilbek (built 2005), has already joined the fleet.
The three sisterships, Barmbek, Reinbek and Flottbek, will follow in April.
The Eilbek-class vessels are the first ships constructed and adapted for operation in ice class conditions to be managed by BSM Germany.
