Veka shipyard - Longship deliveries (6000dwt x 2)

[Henry23]

Back in 2021 Longship ordered 2 vessels at Veka tbn LONGBEACH & LONGBAY (6000dwt) for delivery 2022.

Is anyone aware if these have been cancelled noting VEKA 758 / 759 are yet to be delivered.

In the meantime Longship have just confirmed an order (Feb 2024) for two GS Eco-Freighter 3700 ships at GS Yard in Waterhuizen.

They also have 4 x 8600dwt nb's on order from Atlas Shipyard in Turkey.

The hulls of the two ships were built at a shipyard in Serbia.
This shipyard started a courtfile , saying that VEKA still has too pay a lot of money.
So the two ships are chained , awaiting the courts decision.
