Greek auctioneers have postponed the electronic auction of a 25-year-old containership scheduled to take place in Piraeus on Wednesday.
According to sources following the process, a new date for the sale of the 1,042-teu Mekong Spirit (built 1996) is expected to be set shortly, with the auction likely rescheduled to take place by the end of the year.
Amid booming containership markets, potential buying interest for the Polish-built vessel that has been idling since 2017 at the Greek port of Lavrion has been “most intense”, TradeWinds has been told.
