Tropical Shipping is always looking for ways to make the best service even better.  As a leader in ocean transportation services to The Bahamas and the Caribbean, we are dedicated to offering our customers the fastest transit times to the most destinations with the most dependable, on-time shipping services into our ports of call.  We are pleased to announce a new sailing schedule for our Caucedo – Inter-Island service with dramatically improved transit times. 

As of Wednesday, November 2, 2011, your cargo will sail from the Port of Caucedo to the Eastern Caribbean, British Virgin Islands, U.S. and Canada on Wednesdays instead of Saturdays.  

This new weekly fixed day sailing will reduce our transit times to the Eastern Caribbean by four days. 

Additionally, our transit time from Saint John, Canada and the Port of Palm Beach to Caucedo is reduced by three days.  Vessels from Canada and the U.S. will arrive on Wednesday into Caucedo in place of Saturday.

Benefits of the improved transit time include:

·        The fastest connection from Caucedo to the British Virgin Islands, Eastern Caribbean, U.S. and Canada; allowing for just-in-time inventory management and improved production.

·        Dependable, fixed day departures and arrivals.

·        Cost-effective, ocean-based shipping.

·        Cargo discharged in Caucedo is available for pre-weekend pick-up.
