Nikolas Pateras has clocked up 50 acquisitions for Contships Management, the container ship company he founded from scratch seven years ago.

The latest vessel to join the Greek owner’s fleet is the 1,118-teu Vega Sachsen (built 2008), according to ship management sources.

Brokers reported it as sold earlier this month by Germany’s Vega Reederei at an undisclosed price.
