Many of the tourist parties not only come from the region but from across Germany and those who don\u2019t know the city yet are introduced into Mannheim\u2019s smells first: The downstream voyage ships passengers past the famous chocolate company that natives call \u201cSchokinag\u201d as it used to be called, even though it has had a new name for a long time now. Then on to Mannheim\u2019s typical contrasts and beyond: mountainous, colourful walls of stacked containers and gravel and sand piles as well as the Musikpark start-up centre on the left; the green meadows along the Neckar<\/span>\u2014<span lang=\"EN-GB\">the \u201cNeckarwiese\u201d<\/span>\u2014<span lang=\"EN-GB\">with joggers and strollers on the right and behind them the new Mannheim town archives \u201cMarchivum\u201d erected on a former war bunker.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/0010_hafenrundfahrt_mannheim.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-6481\" src=\"http:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/0010_hafenrundfahrt_mannheim.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/0010_hafenrundfahrt_mannheim.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/0010_hafenrundfahrt_mannheim-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/0010_hafenrundfahrt_mannheim-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"Standard1\"><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Passengers will experience a good two-hour boat trip<\/span>\u2014the harbour is extensive<span lang=\"EN-GB\">. On an amazing journey, Robert steers the boat through the joint harbour area of the towns of Mannheim and Ludwigshafen, which together form one of the most important river docks area in Europe and which are much more extensive and complex than most passengers would have imagined at the beginning of the tour. On the port side, shortly afterthe point where the Neckar river flows into the Rhine, lies the habour part called M\u00fchlauhafen. Passengers learn that the containers stacked here in huge piles are shipped to Antwerp and Rotterdam and from there across the Atlantic to global ports.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/0005_hafenrundfahrt_mannheim.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-6477\" src=\"http:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/0005_hafenrundfahrt_mannheim.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/0005_hafenrundfahrt_mannheim.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/0005_hafenrundfahrt_mannheim-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/0005_hafenrundfahrt_mannheim-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"Standard1\"><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Robert explains that container ships are the most energy-efficient means of transportation and are much quicker than you would expect<\/span>\u2014<span lang=\"EN-GB\">thanks to congestion-free waterways. The tour from Mannheim to the Dutch port of Rotterdam takes as little as 30 hours. The way back upstream against the powerful Rhine current, however, takes about 50 hours. More than 130,000 containers were loaded in Mannheim in 2017 alone. What is inside? Robert laughs through the microphone. \u201cAnything that fits: underpants, bicycles, jelly bears.\u201d Unlike at the sea, there are restrictions for rivers: A maximum of two containers can be stacked on top of each other for Neckar shipping, because many bridges are low. Shipowners may stack two more layers for Rhine shipping though.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p class=\"Standard1\"><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Robert has witnessed lots of change and the container logistics\u2019 triumph in Mannheim harbour. The man with the white captain\u2019s shirt recalls the scene: The first skippers that started using the container system in 1968 were a target of ridicule among colleagues. \u201cNo one saw a bright future for the containers.\u201d Some thirty years ago, grain silos used to be in the place where now terminals and enormous cranes stand. \u201cBut one after the other has disappeared.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><span lang=\"EN-GB\">\u201cShipping is an old, straightforward business.\u201d <\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p class=\"Standard1\"><span lang=\"EN-GB\">A native of Mannheim, Robert has worked for over 40 years in the shipping business<\/span>\u2014either on the water or in the management. <span lang=\"EN-GB\">He transported gravel from the Upper Rhine<\/span><span lang=\"EN-GB\">at first. Later he steered tankers. In 1997 he acquired his dear \u201cKurpfalz.\u201d This rarity is quite a museum piece, but in top shape: built in 1929, 30 metres long, 5.40 metres wide, driven by a 355-hp engine, designed for 220 passengers on three storeys.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/0045_hafenrundfahrt_mannheim.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-6505\" src=\"http:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/0045_hafenrundfahrt_mannheim.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/0045_hafenrundfahrt_mannheim.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/0045_hafenrundfahrt_mannheim-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/0045_hafenrundfahrt_mannheim-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cShipping is an old, straightforward business,\u201d says Robert about his dream job. \u201cIt can be conducted with a few, simple means.\u201d However, technology makes his work life much easier today.

Sonja Dietel and her family have carried their drinks outdoors and enjoy it just like the cool breeze. Sonja used to live in Mannheim.

Robert continues with his speech: In the extensive industrial harbour, the company Hutchinson, who nowadays make rubber items for the automotive supply industry, used to produce condoms and soothers. \u201cThe latter sold well when the first had failed.\u201d The skipper knows all the old stories and the new names in the harbour well: world-famous fashion designer Dorothee Schumacher\u2019s offices as well as the city beach Playa del Ma.

In spring, when the season starts, he does an inspection tour through the harbour to learn what has changed. For two or three trips then, he needs a little crib.
