Overview[]
The Aframax is the second ship in the oil tanker line. It includes a 5,000 barrel capacity with a 22 Knot top speed. The Aframax has 2 1/2 times the capacity of a General Purpose. This ship is able to navigate the Panama canal, but inexperienced captains may find it difficult due to its size. This ship can also easily navigate smaller ports, though those will less experience may find this difficult as well. The best tip with larger ships is to take it slow, as there is a lot of inertia that is built up when these larger vessels get going at high speeds.
Cargo & Profit[]
Being an oil tanker, it is only able to load crude oil and fuel at pipelines. The Aframax is a very handy ship. Users can spend hours on it, as it is profitable ( mostly 500k ) and it is fast for its size, at a top speed of 22 knots, while also still being fuel efficient. Its possible to make multiple smaller runs in this vessel without having to refuel, which can be a massive benefit to profitability, especially to those who don't purchase the reduced fuel price gamepass. Generally the routes described in the oil guide should provide the best profits.
