Pricing Information

Vessel pricing reflects market conditions and material costs over time

2022 Purchase Price

€13,000,000
Original purchase price in 2022
This was the market price when the vessel was constructed and ready for operation in 2022.

Current Minimum Price (2025)

€22,000,000
Minimum possible purchase price
Current market conditions reflect significant increases in steel raw material prices and workmanship costs.

Why the Price Increase?

The significant price increase from €13,000,000 (2022) to €22,000,000 (2025) is primarily due to:

  • Steel Raw Material Prices: Steel prices have increased dramatically over the past 5 years, with current rates significantly higher than 2022 levels.
  • Workmanship Costs: Current workmanship rates are approximately $10 USD per kg, considering the vessel's weight and complexity.
  • Market Conditions: Overall market dynamics, supply chain disruptions, and increased demand have contributed to higher vessel construction and replacement costs.
