Mexican offshore company Demar Instaladora has sold for recycling an elderly cruiseship it has used in an offshore accommodation role for nearly two decades.
The 15,400-gt Enchanted Capri (built 1975) was handed over to a scrapyard in the Mexican port of Coatzacoalcos this week, TradeWinds has learned.
Sources familiar with the current status of the ship described the company that will scrap the ship as being a local scrap metal company that “occasionally dabbles in demolishing smaller offshore vessels”.
