Seanergy fixes recently acquired capesize

Greek owner Seanergy Maritime Holdings has fixed recently delivered 2012-built capesize Partnership to a European utility and energy company on time charter.

The 12-18 month charter is expected to generate revenues of $8.8m assuming the full 18 months employment, indicating a day rate around the $16,000 mark.

Stamatis Tsantanis, chairman and CEO of Seanergy commented: “We are pleased to announce a period employment contract for our most recent capesize acquisition. The strong rate achieved supports our projections for continued improvement in the capesize market and overall dry bulk sector.”

Seanergy announced the $32.65m acquisition of the vessel, formerly named Dong-A Artemis, from South Korea’s Dong-A Tanker in April.
