Greek owner Eastern Mediterranean Maritime (Eastmed) has found a buyer for a 27-year-old ship that will continue trading for some time.

Data banks including S&P Global are already listing the 72,900-dwt panamax Elefsis (built 1997) under its new name of Wafra in the fleet of Combined Group Rocks, a Kuwait-based aggregates trader.

Brokers in the US, London and Greece report that the ship changed hands earlier this month for $6.6m.
