Tankerska Plovidba, a Croatian shipowner with nearly 70 years of history behind it, is said to be divesting its last suezmax at a remarkably high price.

Several brokers in the US, Greece and London report that the company has clinched a deal with undisclosed buyers to offload the 166,200-dwt Donat (built 2007).

Managers at Mario Pavic-led Tankerska Plovidba did not respond to a request for comment.
