Two Chinese outfits have emerged as the buyers behind a pair of vintage capes recently sold by Stamatis Tsantanis-controlled Seanergy Maritime and United Maritime, both of which have now been delivered.According to VesselsValue data, Seanergy’s 2010-built, 180,000 dwt <em>Geniuship </em>(built at HSG Sungdong) has been sold for $21.6m to China Huarong Financial Leasing. In a rare move for the financial player, the company is also listed as the commercial controller, operator, and manager of the vessel. The ship has been renamed Tosco Qianan, joining a portfolio of 11 capes associated with Huarong &mdash;though this is the first unit noted as commercially controlled under its name.Meanwhile, Shanghai Ruikeda Shipping Management has doubled down on its cape ambitions by acquiring United Maritime’s 2005-built <em>Goodship </em>(177,536 dwt, built at Mitsui Ichihara). The vessel has been renamed <em>Sea Cetus</em>. Ruikeda last made headlines in 2024 when it expanded its fleet with the 2007-built, 203,000 dwt <em>Panoramix</em>, named after the druid character from the Asterix comic series.The two off-market deals underline a strong Chinese appetite for older tonnage amid rising cape values.
