Clients of Greece’s Conbulk Shipmanagement have emerged as buyers of a sub-panamax that Borealis Maritime sold earlier last week.

London brokers and owning sources in Greece said the 2,478-teu Strauss (built 2005) is joining the fleet of Piraeus-based Conbulk. The ship is believed to have changed hands for about $8.2m, as TradeWinds reported on 18 July.

Third-party management

Conbulk managing director Dimitris Dalacouras said last year that his company is exclusively in the business of managing ships on behalf of third-party clients.
