Greece’s Alpha Bulkers Shipmanagement has become the latest company to shed at least one of its oldest capesizes at a firm price.

Company managers confirm the 170,400-dwt Alpha Millennium (built 2000) was sold “as is” in Singapore at $457 per ldt, or just under $11.1m. That price includes at least 390 tonnes of bunkers onboard.

Athens brokers reported on 9 April that Alpha Bulkers had also shed the 169,000-dwt Marvellous (built 2000), which is believed to have been sold “as is” in Singapore at $457 per ldt, with about 500 tonnes of bunkers onboard.
