A new shipping fund backed by Navigare Capital Partners has placed its first products tankers into a Maersk Tankers pool.
Maritime Investment Fund 1 secured its debut products tanker purchase in April with the addition of the STX Offshore-built, 50,000-dwt Miseno and Nisida (both built 2012).
TradeWinds reported at the time that the ships were costing $24m each and were the first pieces in the fund’s jigsaw that is expected to include other shipping sectors.
