Costamare takes GoodBulk cape

John Michael Radziwill-led GoodBulk has let go of another capesize, sealing its eighth ship sale in the year to date.

Multiple brokers report the sale of the 2011-built, 175,000dwt Aquaenna, with Costamare tipped to have paid $22m for the Jinhai Heavy-built vessel.

A few months back, the similar sized, one-year-older, New Times-built Rosebank fetched $23.2m since when prices for secondhand dry bulk tonnage have eased.
