Denmark's Clipper Group has been linked to the sale of a 14-year-old bulker.

The 28,400-dwt Clipper Lasco (built 2004) is said by brokers to have gone to Vietnamese interests for $6.8m.

The company told TradeWinds it does not comment on market rumours.

The Imabari-built vessel remains in its website fleet list and is currently operating in Europe.

In October, the owner sold 16 ships as part of a refinancing deal with lenders.
