Mr. Ion Varouxakis, Chief Executive Officer of FreeSeas, stated, "We are pleased to report steadily improving rates for our vessels and we continue to build on our spot chartering strategy. We believe that our fleet is well-positioned to take advantage of the current upturn in the dry bulk market, as a result of our strategic decision last year to operate our Handysize vessels in the spot market. We are encouraged with the recent demand-driven improvement in the dry bulk market, especially for Handysize vessels, as evidenced by the considerable gains shown by the Baltic Dry Index recently. We remain focused in our effort to enhance our cash flow and strengthen our financial position."
