Source: Clarksons Research, February 2025. Note (1): * Based on DWT Note: Panamax fleet includes vessels 60-69,999 dwt built prior to 2000. Handymax fleet includes vessels 40-44,999 dwt built pre-2014. The Handymax sector is comprised of vessels of 45,000-69,999 dwt (though some older vessels in the 60,000-69,999 dwt range are included in the Panamax fleet, whilst some older designs in the 40,000-44,999 dwt range are included in the Handymax fleet). Handymax vessels are more flexible than Panamax or Capesize vessels, are often fitted with cranes, and carry a wide range of minor bulk cargoes, as well as smaller cargo sizes of major bulk cargoes – notably grains, mostly on short and medium-haul routes, but also on some longer-haul routes at times. The Handysize sector includes vessels of 10,000-44,999 dwt (though some older vessels of 40,000-44,999 dwt are included in the Handymax fleet). Handysize vessels are the most versatile of the dry bulk fleet, and are able to serve a diverse set of ports globally due to their smaller dimensions (i.e. shallower draft, narrower beam and shorter overall length), and are typically fitted with cranes or derricks on deck for the loading and discharging of cargoes at ports with limited shoreside infrastructure. Handysize vessels typically transport minor bulk cargoes, primarily on shorter-haul, intra-regional trade routes, as well as some smaller cargoes of major bulks.
