Bore sells GC Sydgard to Wagenborg

Finnish group Bore is selling its general cargoship fleet to focus on ro-ro operations. The company said on Tuesday it is offloading six vessels that constitute its contract of affreightment (CoA) business, which has suffered from “several years of over-capacity and unsustainably poor profitability.”It blamed the small size of the CoA fleet for its uncompetitive position against larger players in the tough general cargo sector. The 3,700-dwt Nordgard (built 1999) and the 3,800-dwt Sydgard and Westgard (both built 2000) and Ostgard (built 2001) are being bought by Wagenborg, for delivery by the end of December. All this will lead to a maximum of 19 out of 31 shore workers being made redundant at Bore.Limestone shipper Nordkalk has agreed a three-year deal with the new owner to carry cargoes up to 2017.
