Sallaum Lines reveals the delivery of MV Ocean Legacy, the latest Pure Car and Truck Carrier (PCTC) to join its Ocean Class fleet, arriving just one month after putting MV Ocean Explorer into service. The arrival of this next-generation vessel underlines the pace of the company’s Ocean Class Program and reflects a clear strategic focus on modern tonnage, improved efficiency, and lower-impact maritime operations.
