StealthGas says the 4,100-cbm Gas Kaizen (built 1991) and 3,200-cbm Gas Crystal (built 1990) have been sent for demolition, as reported by TradeWinds in April.

Harry Vafias-led StealthGas says the ships fetched a combined $2.1m.

Vafias notes the company has taken delivery of three eco newbuildings this year and another seven are set to arrive during 2015.

StealthGas announced the double disposal alongside a first quarter profit of $5.8m,
