The daily TCE of our fleet was $26,636, representing a premium of about 18% compared to the $22,600 average of the Baltic Capesize Index for the period. Our active hedging plan was a main driver of this outperformance…”

In June, we took delivery of the 2013-built M/V Iconship, with the vessel immediately commencing employment on an index-linked time-charter with the earliest expiry date in March 2026. Furthermore, we expect to take delivery of a 2012 built Capesize, which will be renamed M/V Kaizenship, within the third quarter.
