The shipping company Moby has put up for sale on the portal Fallco Aste a unique lot consisting of five ships of its own fleet at the total base price of €229.9 million, with deadline for the submission of bids set for next 11 November at 1.00 p.m. and with the sales tender that will take place the next day from 11.00 to 15.00. These are the Moby Aki ferries, built in 2005 and gross tonnage of 36,284 tons, Moby Wonder, built in 2001 and gross tonnage of 36,093 tons, Athara, built in 2003 and 35,736 GRT, Janas, built in 2002 and 35,736 GRT, and Moby Ale Due, built in 2001 and of 35,736 GRT.

Regarding the sale of the two ships Moby Aki and Moby Wonder there is an obligation for the successful bidder to contextual stipulation with Moby, which will become the lessee, of a contract bareboat lease for each vessel for a duration of 15 years at a daily fee of 15,000 euros. The successful tenderer must also undertake not to change the name of the ships and to retain the Italian flag for the entire duration of the bareboat lease.

The procedure for the sale of the five ships takes place following the green light from the Italian Competition Authority and the Market to the agreement between Shipping Agencies Services (SAS) and the GNV, both of the MSC group, and Moby for the exit of SAS from the capital of Moby by selling its shareholding without consideration ( of 24 October 2025). The agreement provides that, in order to extinguish the 243 million euro loan obtained from SAS, Moby entrusts to a third the organization of a tender to sell a package of asset.
