Greek shipowner Carras (Hellas) is seeking to offload another 17-year-old capesize bulker.

European brokers said the company's 171,000-dwt Aquabreeze (built 2003) is up for inspection by prospective buyers in Zhanjiang, China, this week.

The Sasebo-built ship is expected to fetch a similar price as a sistership sold earlier this year.

In June, the company sold the Aquaglory (built 2003) to Jiangsu Huaxi Ship Management of China reportedly for $9.5m.

Carras did not respond to requests for comment.

The two bulkers have been in the company's fleet since they were new and became the company's oldest units.

The owner is listed with a fleet of 12 bulkers, including three capesizes. Among them are the 182,000-dwt Aquaprincess (built 2009) and the sistership Aquadiva (built 2010). With a huge price tag of $110m each, the Odense-built bulkers are likely the most expensive capesizes that have ever been constructed.

The low-key Greek owner is believed to have paid the yard in cash, so the company has a lower break-even level for the ships.
