Westfal-Larsen is to make fully open-hatch bulkers its sole focus going forward after selling two vessels with semi open hatches.
The private Bergen-based shipowner has sold the 50,000-dwt Mariana and Mobilana (both built 1998) for more than $5m each.
In a surprising move, one of the Namura Shipbuilding-constructed vessels — the Mobilana — has been picked up by Bergen-based rival Grieg Star.
