E-Ship 1
The ''E-Ship 1'' is a RoLo cargo ship that made its first voyage with cargo in August 2010. The ship is owned by the third-largest wind turbine manufacturer, Germany's Enercon GmbH. It is used to transport wind turbine components. The ''E-Ship 1'' is a Flettner ship: four large rotorsails that rise from its deck are rotated via a mechanical linkage to the ship's propellers. The sails, or Flettner rotors, aid the ship's propulsion by means of the Magnus effect – the perpendicular force that is exerted on a spinning body moving through a fluid stream.
==Building history==
The hull of ''E-Ship 1'' was built by German shipbuilder Lindenau Werft in Kiel. The ship's launch took place on August 2, 2008, with the delivery date estimated for the first half of 2009. In September 2009, Lindenau-Werft declared insolvency. On January 25, 2009, it was announced that ''E-Ship 1'' would be towed to and completed by German shipyard Cassens Werft in Emden.
Steel construction work was completed in 2010, and the ship was docked at North Sea Works, where final construction took place with the ship in the water. In April 2010, the ''E-Ship 1'' returned to Cassens Werft, where preparations were made for sea trials. The ship set off for a first sea trial from Emden to Bremerhaven on 6 July 2010. Three trial runs were completed until the end of July. The ship made its first voyage with cargo in August 2010, carrying nine turbines for Castledockrell Wind Farm from Emden to Dublin, Ireland.
