    How Ships Are Actually Bought and Sold — The Insider Breakdown | Ravi Shankar | Maritime Dialogues

    Ravi Shankar has been negotiating ship sale and purchase deals for over 25 years. More than 200 transactions across tankers, dry bulk, and everything in between. Co-founder and Chief Commercial Officer of Shipfinex — the world's first regulated blockchain-based ship tokenization platform. And a Vice Chair and tutor at the Institute of Chartered Shipbrokers. In this episode of Maritime Dialogues, Manasi sits down with Ravi for one of the most practically rich conversations the show has had — breaking down exactly how ship deals happen, why most of them fall apart, and why the future of maritime investment is about to open up to everyone. In this episode:→ How a single deal in 2002 taught him everything about ship sale and purchase→ The step-by-step breakdown of how a real ship deal actually happens — from first call to final delivery→ Why only 10 to 20% of deals ever actually close — and where the rest fall apart→ What separates a smart buyer from a conservative one in this market→ Why trust closes the deal and contracts protect it — not the other way around→ The fastest deal he ever closed: 7 days, brokerage in the account on day 10→ The longest deal he ever worked: one full year, same buyer, same ship, same seller→ What Shipfinex is building — and why ship tokenization could change maritime investment forever→ Where to put your money in shipping for the next five years "Keep it simple. Keep it clear. Keep it transparent. That is the only trick." Maritime Dialogues is produced by Gujarathi Empire × RBB Ship Chartering, in partnership with BK3 Studios.

It runs the world — silently, without making noise. And it is better that way." 🎧 Maritime Dialogues is produced by Gujarathi Empire × RBB Ship Chartering, in partnership with BK3 Studios.
