Tiger Group linked with large boxship order at Yangzijiang
Deal is said to include firm orders for two 14,000 teu ships and options for six more, with the first pair to be built at Yangzi Xinfu Shipbuilding, a subsidiary yard of Yangzijiang
Tiger chairman Graham Porter declined to comment on the reported order, but some see this as an attempt by him and long-time business partner Gerry Wang to establish another top-rank containership-owning company after their success developing Seaspan into a premier tonnage provider for box lines
