Croatian shipping company Atlantska Plovidba has continued to refinance its fleet through Chinese sale and leaseback deals.

The Zagreb-listed owner said it had clinched a five-year agreement with China Huarong Shipping Financial Leasing for two supramaxes and a handysize.

The ships are the 57,000-dwt AP Astarea and AP Slano (both built 2012) and the 39,000-dwt AP Dubrava (built 2015), Atlantska Plovidba said in a filing.
