Subject: Trading vessels joint venture

This following email was received from an interested company in Australia looking for partnership in the shipping industry:

They currently have two vessels that presently require refurbishment at mimimal cost, however lead themselves ideally to work in a region such as yours. One is a refrigerated mothership (fishing) and has in fact worked within the Solomons before. the other an ex cargo vessel (PNG Copra Trade), now grab dredge (ex Pioneer Concrete) of abt 1000 tons capacity. This could be reconverted back to general cargo withot too much trouble. Both Ships are here in Qld, Australia and would require about $175,000 AUS spending on them in total refit costs. They would be then ready to work.
