Commenting on the charter,
“In addition to maintaining the Company’s ability to capture market upturns in strong freight environments, particularly during periods of exceptionally positive industry fundamentals, we seek to secure a certain level of fixed revenue for our fleet. As a result, considering recent market developments with charter rates at multiyear highs, the recent expansion of our fleet, and our desire to establish solid partnerships with first-class charterers, we decided to time charter the M/T P. Aliki at this very lucrative level almost two months prior to actually taking delivery of the vessel.”
