Pirate Movie: Octane Gasoline and Favoured Marinakis

pirate movie: It pits Evangelos Marinakis, one of Greece's most powerful businessmen and owner of its most successful soccer club, Olympiakos, against a fellow shipping magnate from Venezuela, Wilmer Ruperti, who has a long history of helping the country's socialist leaders, according to CTV. Round one appears to have favoured Marinakis, whose Piraeus-based Capital Ship Management Corp, operates the Alkimos. The commercial dispute, which hasn't been previously reported, has all the drama of a pirate movie a precious cargo, clandestine sea manoeuvrs and accusations of a high seas heist. On Wednesday, federal marshals in Houston are scheduled to auction off the ship's' cargo 100,266 barrels of high octane gasoline estimated to be worth more than 5 million. This clearly demonstrates that sanctions work, said Russ Dallen, who closely monitors maritime traffic as the head of Miami-based Caracas Capital Markets. The auction is in response to Judge Lynn Hughes' order seizing the cargo, which he said would've likely ended up in Venezuela, while arbitration over a 1.7 million lien continues.
