This cargo ship from 1909 is starting to make zero-emissions deliveries again

Sailcargo doesn’t expect to replace the massive industry. But as companies look for ways to reduce emissions, it can offer a solution that works now. Because it doesn’t use shipping containers—goods are loaded on pallets—it also has some logistical advantages. “Some of these fast vessels have to wait at port often up to two weeks, because they’re dependent on the port infrastructure,” says Doggett. “They need the big crane to unload the container. We do not—we can unload ourselves.”

Doggett, who started sailing on tall ships as a 13-year-old, started thinking about the potential to revive traditional cargo shipping more than a decade ago. In 2014, she and two partners launched the company and later began working on building a traditional vessel from scratch. While traveling, Doggett had also run across the Vega. The ship, built in 1909, had been retired in the 1960s, as fossil-fueled container ships started to dominate trade routes. It was headed for the scrapyard when a family of Swedish shipbuilders rescued it and spent years restoring it; Doggett, who loved the design, stayed in touch with them and eventually made a deal to buy it.

Inktober Day 2: Sails

A China Shipping Development Co. freight barque glides into harbor ready to unburden itself of its cargo. Carbon taxes and environmental regulations have rendered diesel ships economically untenable and a new Age of Sail has begun.

International shipping accounts for something like 2-3% of global CO2 emissions and is responsible for a whole host of other environmental issues like oil spills and the noise pollution of ocean habitats. I tried to imagine a future where the scale of cargo shipping is reduced and is mostly carried out by more traditional sailing ships to counter its negative effects. Companies like Sailcargo, Inc are actually working on developing wooden cargo sailing ships to tackle this issue. I thought it was an interesting solution to a problem that I don’t really hear discussed too often
