Kassian Maritime, a serial Greek buyer and seller of secondhand ships, may be homing in on a new deal.

European brokers have linked it to the purchase of the 75,200-dwt Annabell (built 2010) for about $14.2m. The vessel is currently listed under the ownership of German finan­cial firm NAVES Invest.

Managers at Kassian declined to comment, although they said the company is looking to expand while renewing its fleet.
