Zodiac Maritime has picked up a capesize vessel, while Oldendorff has sold another as a rebound in prices continues to fuel a busy secondhand market for large bulkers.
Eyal Ofer-led Zodiac Maritime's purchase represents its second buy this month as the Monaco shipowner continues to play an active role in the sale-and-purchase market.
The company has bought the 180,000-dwt Huge Hakata (built 2012) from Japan’s Nissen Kaiun for a reported $23m, brokers said.
