Shipping

With our ships Ramona and Riona we can offer you fully boxed cargo holds, steel floored and strenghtened for heavy cargoes, and equipped with movable bulkheads.

The crews are well-trained and used to navigating in narrow waters. Due to the low airdrafts and loaded drafts of the ships, we are capable of serving you in almost any port in Northern Europe.
Education

Our company has experience in producing educational services, in various nautical sciences, at Åbo Navigationsinstitut (Turku Maritime Institute), Yrkeshögskolan Sydväst. These services are offered mostly at our Shipping Off-season, January-March.
Manuals

In addition to successfully producing various manuals for our own vessels, we have assisted other companies with as well guidance as the finished SOLAS-compatible product for their dry cargo coasters. Our working language is Swedish, but we are also fluent in both English and Finnish.

Our experience includes ISPS, Training Manuals, ISM, Garbage Plan & Record Book and SOPEP.
History

Ab Ronja Marin was founded in 1999, as a family business. M/v Ronja, which was launched in 1955 as Elizabeth Roorda, was purchased and run as a Master/Owner-vessel. She carried bulk and general cargoes around the Baltic Sea, e.g. sand, stone products, sugar, grain and fertilizers. In 2002, m/v Rebecca was aquired, an event which dramatically modernized the fleet. The old lady Ronja was laid up, and later sold to Kenyan interests. In the spring of 2007, Riona was aquired to meet the demands of the market, and by Christmas the same year, Rebecca was sold. A few months later, replacing tonnage had been found, which resulted in the purchase of m/v Ramona (ex-Maria H) in April 2008.

M/v Ramona and m/v Riona are now serving our clients in the Baltic and North Sea, with Captain A Isaksson still working partly as Master/Owner.
