Hayfin has won a petition to auction a suezmax tanker controlled by Turkish shipowner Advantage Tankers in South Africa next month, according to a court document seen by TradeWinds.

The 156,658-dwt Advantage Sky (built 2010) will go under the hammer on 6 April in Cape Town.

According to a legal source involved, Hayfin, the mortgagee of the vessel, filed the petition following “various events of default”.
