A ship in Chinese bulker player Ningbo Zrich Shipping’s fleet is reportedly sold for $10m more than the purchase price a little more than a year ago, says a Splash 247 news.
The New Times-built Springbank
The New Times-built Springbank was one of two 10-year-old 177,000 dwt capes added in an en bloc deal in March 2020 from German interests.
Back then Beijing-based Minsheng Finance Leasing(MFS) bought two modern capes and bareboat chartered them back to Ningbo Zrich Shipping.
Ningbo Zrich Shipping has three capes
Shipbroker Advanced Shipping and Trading links Greek owner Kassian Maritime to the latest deal. Ningbo Zrich Shipping, which has three capes, has close ties to Kassian.
This year, the Pappadakis family outfit sold the 14-year-old 174,000 dwt Giant Slotta for $12m. This ship is now with Zrich and renamed Highland Park.
In addition to the above capes, Ningbo Zrich’s bulker fleet counts another 10 young supramaxes and one handymax, ships that Minsheng has slipped into the Zrich fleet.
