Lauritzen Bulkers continues to dispose of modern handysize bulkers, selling a fifth unit in a little more than a month.
The Hakodate-built Laura Bulker (built 2008) is understood to have gone to a Turkish buyer for some $7.5m.
Such a figure is largely in line with the four other units that the company has sold of late.
The Laura Bulker sale follows the departure of the 28,700-dwt Amine Bulker and Sofie Bulker (both built 2007), the 31,000-dwt Maren Bulker (built 2008) and the 28,400-dwt Tenna Bulker (built 2005).
