First ship sunk by Houthi missiles is replaced in owner’s fleet

GMZ Ship Management has found a ship to replace a handysize bulker sent by Houthi missiles to the bottom of the Red Sea.

The S&P Global data base shows the Lebanese owner’s Greek unit GMZ Ship Management Co (Hellas) as new manager of a small, 20-year-old bulker.

The 31,800-dwt Ahu C (built 2004), a vessel previously with Turkey’s Manta Shipping, joined the GMZ fleet earlier this month.
