Taiwanese liner Wan Hai’s buying spree continues with the acquisition of 2005-built 6,350 TEU boxship Partner Star from Greek owner Costamare.

The company announced that it bought the Japanese-built ship for a price of $24.75m, substantially higher than VesselsValue’s valuation of $20.52m for the vessel.

The latest deal follows the company buying the 6,350 teu Hyundai New York from Eastern Pacific for $27m.

Wan Hai has been one of the most aggressive buyer in the secondhand containership market recently with the acquisition of six ships in total during December.
