Diana Containerships (DCIX) of Greece has fixed a post-panamax to MSC at a low initial rate, but options could prove more lucrative.

The US-listed owner is taking $6,500 per day for the 6,541-teu Puelo (built 2006) for a firm year, starting this month.

There is an option for MSC to keep the ship for another year at $8,600 per day. A second annual option would be at $20,000.
