Ships Contracted for Purchase
As announced on February 9, 2021, GSL agreed the purchase and charter-back of seven 6,000 TEU Post-Panamax containerships, with an average age of approximately 20 years, for an en-bloc acquisition price of $116 million
The ships are scheduled for phased delivery in 2Q & 3Q 2021, and are contracted to be chartered to leading liner operators for three-to-five years (with a minimum firm period of three years)
Upon delivery, the ships will be re-named GSL Arcadia, GSL Dorothea, GSL Maria, GSL Melita, GSL MYNY, GSL Tegea, and GSL Violetta
Once all seven ships have been delivered, the charters are expected to generate average aggregate annualized Adjusted EBITDA of approximately $29 million over the firm period
Geared ships are equipped with onboard cranes, allowing them to load and discharge in ports where shoreside infrastructure is limited.
Wide beam improves vessel stability and reduces the need for ballast water, resulting in lower fuel consumption and higher cargo carrying capacity.
At standard operating speeds, fully laden eco-vessels consume 20 - 30 mt per day less fuel than non-eco tonnage, reducing daily running costs for charterers.
High reefer count allows charterers to carry high-margin refrigerated cargo.
Ships fitted with “scrubbers” (Exhaust Gas Cleaning Systems) are permitted to burn fuel with a higher Sulphur content, while still complying with IMO 2020 emission regulations
