Star Maritime Acquisition Corp.

Star Maritime Acquisition Corp. (ticker: SEA1) was a blank check company that completed its initial public offering in 2005, targeting acquisitions in the maritime shipping and transportation sector. Sponsored by Petros Pappas and a management team with deep roots in international dry bulk shipping, the SPAC was among the early vehicles to apply the blank check structure to global maritime consolidation. The company filed an 8-K with the SEC on November 30, 2007, and ultimately completed a business combination with Excel Maritime Carriers, an established dry bulk shipping operator.
