feedering Explanation: http://www.cma-cgm.com/magazine/mag19/pdf/4-7.pdf Short sea shipping must not be confused with coastal country, and the word feedering. Short sea means seagoing transportation between areas of economic similarity. Coastal country is a legal terminology linked to transportation between two ports in the same traffic. Feedering is a maritime terminology equated to a transport carried out between the transhipment port by a “mother vessel”. The smaller “feeder”, vessels connect up with local service routes. |
