Caly με σημαια St Kitts and Nevis το πλοιο...

[mastrokostas]

Κοντά εκεί στην Πέμπτη ,μας την κάνει για ταξίδι χωρίς γυρισμό !
Όταν το έφεραν στην Αυλίδα ,για την μετασκευή του , έδεσε δίπλα στο Regent Spirit που ήμουν τότε . Ξέροντας οτι το ξενοδοχειακό θα ξηλωθεί όλο, και ότι υπήρχε μέσα θα πήγαινε στον παλιατζή , πήραμε κάποια μηχανήματα ήχου και επανδρώσαμε το δικό μας crew bar !!!

Λογικά, μετά την αναχώρηση του ...CALY, θα πρέπει να μεταφερθεί σε άλλη ντάνα το CORAL. Εκτός αν στο μεταξύ είχε προστεθεί και άλλο πλοίο στην παρέα των δύο.

Sad news, indeed.
What I can't understand:
Louis, in their books, had an asset of $2,110,000 Ok. they sell this ship and the have neither profit, nor loss.
From the "Argo systems" view, they have paid $2,110,000 to Louis, to get the ship.
What is the profit expected for "Argo systems", considering ship's tonnage and today's scrap prices? (+ costs of positioning voyage to India).
In other words, i find $2,1 million to be, too much for this transaction...

Lostromos you are right but there must be a way they can make money by reselling it otherwise there would be no point in making the transaction. I don't really know what scrap values are and whether they sell it to one particular breakers yard or a group of them but even if they make a very small profit there must be a lucrative loophole somewhere ?? maybe one of our Nautilia friends can throw some light on this !!

Henry, I'm attaching a "demolition report for week 9 of 2013". It's not about passenger ships but, it's indicative.

She might have a light ship at abt 6000 . 2.1 mil usd .. So 350 usd per ton is a logical price if not the best one for as-is basis hence the ...sentenced to death lady is in Greece

If I am reading the chart correctly (and am assuming the prices shown are per displacement ton dt) lets say Calypso has 20,000 tons displacement (just a guess as she is approx 12,000 GRT). And lets say the price for passenger ships is 400 USD per ton. This gives us us 20,000 X 400 = 8,000,000 so according to my calculations they would be making a handsome profit ! even taking into account costs for crewing/positioning voyage etc. .......but I might be totally wrong in my sums or does this make sense?

Cheers

A simple way to calculate the light ship of a vessel ( the scrapper boys buy the vessels as per their light weight) is : displacement minus net tonnage

OK so even if displacement tonnage was 17,000 and the scrap rate 350 USD per ton they would still get 5,950,000 so they are still making almost 300 % profit!....
