Top-level shipowning opinion is split on whether now is the time to buy vessels or wait just a little bit longer.
A straw poll of seven owners appearing at the Posidonia TradeWinds Shipowners Forum produced three “buys”, three “holds” and one abstention.
The decisive ones who would buy now were Evangelos Marinakis of Capital Maritime, Angeliki Frangou of Navios and Robert Burke of Ridgebury Tankers.
