Shipowner John Su has pulled off a tidy piece of business in the dry cargo sale-and-purchase market.
QC Shipping Investments, in which Su’s Erasmus is a partner, has sold the 72,900-dwt QC Athina (built 20000).
A price in the region of $7.3m has been paid for the ship, Su confirmed when contacted by TradeWinds.
The figure, which broking sources describe as firm in today’s market at a time when interest in dry bulk is warming, compares with the $6m the venture paid for the ship in April 2015.
