In July 2026, the Handysize dry bulk vessel MAAS CONFIDENCE, managed by Hellas Confidence Shipmanagement S.A., underwent dry-docking at ONEX Syros Shipyards, where Jotun’s SeaQuest Endura II antifouling coating was applied.
The Jotun Coating Advisors team supported the project throughout, and their close attention and technical expertise ensured careful monitoring of the coating application process. Their involvement reflects Jotun’s commitment to providing not only advanced coating solutions, but also dedicated technical support throughout each project.
SeaQuest Endura II is a high-performing foul release (FRC), tin-free biocidal antifouling coating, developed as part of Jotun’s Tailored to TradeTM approach and integral to HPS 2.0. Designed to provide operational flexibility for vessels facing unpredictable trading patterns, the system is based on FlexcureTM technology, delivering excellent adhesion and leveling properties, optimized curing speed, humidity tolerance, and extended repairability.
"The finish achieved with SeaQuest Endura II has exceeded our expectations. The coating delivers an outstanding high-gloss appearance, giving the vessel a premium, like-new look that truly stands out. From the moment the application was completed, the aesthetic result reflected the high quality of the product and the care invested in the project."
Raoul de Troije, Director - Hellas Confidence Shipmanagement S.A.
"The dry-docking of MAAS CONFIDENCE reflects the growing confidence international owners and managers place in ONEX Shipyards. Our teams in Syros delivered the vessel on schedule and to the standard our partners expect, providing the right environment for Jotun's application team to achieve this result. Projects like this confirm the role of Greek shipbuilding in serving global commercial shipping."
Giannis Vamvakousis, General Manager of ONEX Syros Shipyards
The successful dry-docking of MAAS CONFIDENCE at ONEX Syros Shipyard demonstrates how SeaQuest Endura II combines performance, flexibility, and appearance in a coating solution tailored to the evolving demands of commercial shipping.
