Swiss bulker owner Suisse-Atlantique has offloaded another older panamax bulker as it continues to trim its fleet.

Greek brokers said the company had sold its CSBC-built, 73,000-dwt Celerina (built 1999) to an undisclosed buyer for $5.5m.

Chief executive Jean Noel Andre confirmed that the Celerina is committed for sale.

Values weakening

The deal verifies a trend in weakening values for such bulkers.
