A flurry of largely unreported deals have been struck by Greek shipowners in the secondhand market for handysize bulkers so far this year.
Synesios Leontiadis-led Lion Bulk Carriers sold the Imabari Shipping-constructed, 28,400-dwt Explorer (built 2012) to Taylor Maritime in a deal that has remained below the radar — and no price details have emerged.
Athens-based Lion Bulk Carriers, which did not respond to a request for comment, purchased the ship in late 2016 for a reported $7.9m.
