Contships swoops for Brise feedermax boxship

Greek owner Contship has acquired the 2007-built 1,019 teu boxship Sonderborg from German owner Brise Schiffahrts.

Clarksons, Seasure Shipbroking and Advanced Shipping & Trading all reported that Contships bought the Chinese-built vessel from a price of $2.65m, significantly lower than VesselsValue‘s valuation of $3.5m.

Nicolas Pateras-controlled Contships currently owns a fleet of 40 feeder boxships according to VesselsValue, with a total capacity of around 43,700 teu.
