US-based shipowner Sophocles Zoullas has been looking back on a shipping career lasting more than three decades.
The owner of private New York company Zenith Shipping is a born-and-bred New Yorker and the scion of two Greek shipping families.
He started out running a privately held fleet before founding Eagle Bulk Shipping and taking it public in New York in 2005, before leaving 10 years later after a restructuring.
