London owner Scotline has firmed up its option for a second cargoship newbuilding at the Royal Bodewes yard in the Netherlands.
The ship will be a 4,785-dwt Bodewes Trader-type sister, called Scot Explorer, to the Scot Carrier.
It will launch in the third quarter of 2019.
Scot Carrier will be delivered in October this year. No price has been revealed for either ship.
