MC-Seamax rides strong boxship recovery as rates keep climbing

London, United Kingdom, – (March 14, 2018) — MC-Seamax has fixed a pair of its large boxships at levels far exceeding last done.

The New York owner has fixed the 8,063-teu Seamax Darien (built 2003) to Mediterranean Shipping Co for 12 months at $20,000 per day, European brokers said.

That is 30% to 40% higher than fixtures of similar ships a few weeks ago, although Seamax is likely to surpass this benchmark in the coming days with the pending fixture of the 8,059-teu Seamax New Haven (built 2005).

“We don’t comment on fixtures, but the charter market for our vessels is definitely improving,” managing partner and co-founder Cao Deambrosio said.
