Court puts second Trinity tanker under the hammer

A second tanker managed by Greece’s Trinity Ships is heading towards judicial sale after creditors arrested it in the Netherlands.

The first Trinity ship to go under the hammer was the 35,700-dwt product tanker Huascar (built 1992). As TradeWinds reported this week, the vessel was auctioned in Namibia, fetching $2.8m, plus $200,000 for bunkers. Its new owner is Panama-based Peninsula Maritime.
