The 2005-built Pamina is set to be delivered to its new owners by November 15, 2019, according to Performance Shipping.

The sale of the 5,042 TEU boxship has left the rebranded company with a total of three containerships, two Post-Panamax and one Panamax.

In June this year, the company bought its first vessel outside the containership sector as it acquired former Maersk Jeddah from Maersk Tankers. The 2011-built Aframax tanker was delivered in August.

Another Aframax, the Maersk Jamnagar, is set to be delivered to the company in November 2019.
