The Clipper Group is part of the<br />
<strong>No</strong>rdic Ferry Service, which has the contract<br />
for the Hou–Sælvig service as from<br />
October 2008. The latest power-shopping<br />
(as the employees call it when the owner<br />
Torben Gulner-Jensen has been to China to<br />
sign up for another ten handy-size bulk carriers,<br />
as he did a couple of weeks ago) was a<br />
bunch of at least ten new handy-size bulk<br />

dane Shipping has built up a business as<br />
the ISM manager for smaller owners, but<br />
the business is drying out as the owners sell<br />
off the tonnage. This particular business<br />
has also given the company a trial on its<br />
hands as the CEO, Niels Højlund, has<br />
been taken to court as responsible for the<br />
Karen Danielsen’s collision with the Great<br />
Belt bridge. <strong>No</strong>rdane Shipping was the<br />
ISM responsible for the ship when the<br />
accident occurred.<br />
C. J. Helt of Svendborg has sold off the<br />
Othonia, the last Husum-built coaster<br />
under Danish flag, but rather unusually<br />
replaced it with a more modern coaster,<br />
incidentally built in Husum as well.<br />
New tug company<br />
In the small segment with tugs, two people<br />
have started their own business, Dan Tug<br />
A/S, by purchasing two tugs from Jens<br />
Alfastsen in Horsens. He sold the Susanne<br />
A, a 40 tons bollard pull tug and the small<br />
tug Sanne A, built in 1908, with five tons<br />
bollard pull. The small tug is often used in<br />
salvage operations for pleasure crafts and<br />
repair work on fixed links over waters.<br />
