Brokers say KEB Hana Bank is encouraging them to market the 179,147-dwt Hanjin Cape Lambert (built 2009), which has been the subject of a sales dispute between Idan Ofer-controlled Eastern Paci-fic Shipping (EPS) and Evangelos Marinakis’ Capital Maritime.
The brokers indicate that values for modern capesizes built post-2009 are increasing on the back of a slight rise in daily rates for period business from $9,000 into the low $10,000-per-day range.
