Singapore’s Eastern Pacific Shipping has produced another landmark deal in the red-hot car carrier segment, chartering out a pure car/truck carrier (PCTC) for a year at more than $100,000 per day.
Shipping sources said the Idan Ofer-controlled company is pocketing more than $36.5m by extending the charter of the Imabari Shipbuilding-constructed, 6,178-ceu Lake Geneva (built 2015) to Japan’s Nissan Motor Car Carrier (NMCC).
