"As expected - the managing director of GSL, Ian Webber has commented - with all ours 17 located ships rental to time and with a minor number of days I do not use of the ships thanks to the reduced number of breakings in dry dock, we have reached a rate I use in the quarter of 98.3% (96.8% in first trimester 2012, ndr)". Webber has announced that recently the society has agreed with CMA CGM renews for a year of the chartering of two ships in expiration this month: "in spite of the current volatility of the field and although the fact that many ships of similar detailed lists currently are made unusable - it has emphasized - we are assured the sure employment of these two ships until April 2014, maintaining therefore a fleet entirely rented in order at least another year. Besides these two ships - it has specified Webber - we do not have other expiration of chartering until end 2016. What important - he has concluded the CEO of GSL - continuing the charterings with CMA CGM we some lacked day of we use the ships, we do not support the costs connected with the repositioning of the ships neither we pay some compensation for intermediations to third party".
