Eagle Bulk Shipping has taken delivery of the sixth and final Ultramax dry bulk vessel it had agreed to acquire in July of this year.

The ship, which has been renamed Hong Kong Eagle, was originally built by China's Jiangsu Yangzijiang Shipbuilding in 2016.

Hong Kong Eagle and the five other Ultramax vessels acquired by Eagle since September all belong to the same series of 64,000DWT bulk carriers designed by Shanghai Merchant Ship Design and Research Institute (SDARI).
