Fleet Profile & Employment
Euroseas employs its vessels under both short term, long term and index linked charters. Euroseas has a policy of employing a minimum number of its vessels under period time charters sufficient to cover its expenses for the next 12 months.
A time charter is a contract to charter a vessel for an agreed period of time at a set daily rate. Under time charters, the charterer pays these voyage expenses.
Under all types of charters, Euroseas will pay for vessel operating expenses, which include crew costs, provisions, deck and engine stores, lubricating oil, insurance, maintenance and repairs. Euroseas is also responsible for each vessel's intermediate drydocking and special survey costs.
Vessels operating on longer period charters provide more predictable cash flows, but can yield lower profit margins than vessels operating in the spot market during periods characterized by favorable market conditions. However, Euroseas would then be exposed to the risk of declining market charter rates, which may be higher or lower than the rates at which Euroseas chartered its vessels. Euroseas is constantly evaluating opportunities for longer period charters, but only enters into these contracts if can obtain contract terms that satisfy its criteria.
