Tufton Oceanic Assets buys container vessel

The Board of Tufton Oceanic Assets Limited (ticker: SHIP.L) is pleased to announce that the Company has agreed to acquire a containership for $13m.

The vessel will have a time charter of two years to a leading private operator of containerships specialising in fresh fruit transport. The yield is in line with the targets expressed in the Company’s C Share prospectus.

This is the second investment made from the C Share proceeds announced on 11 October 2018. This acquisition will take the Company’s fleet to eight vessels, five of which are containerships all below 3000-TEU capacity.

The Company also recently employed one of its handysize bulkers on a time charter of approximately one year, and therefore the Company currently has no spot market exposure.

Tufton Oceanic Limited, the Investment Manager, continues to identify an attractive pipeline of opportunities across a range of the Company’s target sectors.
