Diana Shipping has locked one of its panamaxes into a period charter, its sixth similar deal this month.
The Greek bulker owner said Hudson has hired the 73,630-dwt Protefs (built 2004) at $7,900 per day, from 12 to 15 months.
This represents a pay rise from the vessel’s previous charter with Transgrain Shipping at $4,500.
Protefs is expected to be delivered to its charterer on 23 June, after it underwent scheduled dry docking earlier this month.
