Euroseas Ltd. Announces Agreement to Purchase a Multipurpose Vessel and to Sell Handysize Size Bulk Carrier

Maroussi, Athens, Greece –April 19, 2006 – Euroseas Ltd., an owner and operator of drybulk and container carrier vessels and provider of seaborne transportation for dry bulk and containerized cargoes, announced today that on April 10, 2006, a subsidiary of Euroseas Ltd. signed a Memorandum of Agreement to purchase M/V “Tasman Trader”, a multipurpose dry cargo vessel of 22,568 dwt and 950 twenty-foot equivalent units (teu) built in 1990. The vessel can transport bulk commodities and/or containers.

The vessel is to be delivered to Euroseas Ltd. between April 25 and May 8, 2006 at the sellers’ option. The M/V “Tasman Trader” comes with a period charter attached until November 2008 at a rate of USD $8,850 per day. Thereafter, Euroseas has arranged an extension with the same charterer for a further 24 months, ending November 2010, at USD 9,500. After that 24 month period, Euroseas has arranged for a further extension for 15 months, ending February 2012, at USD $9,000.

Furthermore, Euroseas Ltd., announced that on April 14, 2006, a subsidiary of Euroseas Ltd. signed a memorandum of agreement to sell M/V “Pantelis P”, a handysize bulk carrier of 26,354 dwt built in 1981. The vessel is to be delivered to the buyers between May 15 and June 30, 2006 at Euroseas Ltd. option.

Following the acquisition of the M/V “Tasman Trader”, the sale of the M/V “Pantelis P” and the earlier sale of M/V “John P”, which will be delivered to the buyers in late June / early July 2006, the Company will ultimately have a fleet of 7 vessels, including 1 Panamax drybulk carrier, 2 Handysize drybulk carriers, 3 Handysize containerships and a Handysize multipurpose dry cargo vessel,. Euroseas 3 drybulk carrier vessels have a total cargo capacity of 138,196 deadweight  tons (dwt), its 3 containerships have a cargo capacity of 66,100 dwt and 4,636 teu and its 1 multipurpose vessel has a cargo capacity of 22,568 dwt and 950 teu.

Aristides Pittas, Chairman and CEO of Euroseas commented: "Our strategy has been to take advantage of market opportunities and grow our company by focusing on age and size segments which we believe can maximize our return on equity. In this context, we are particularly pleased with the acquisition of the M/V “Tasman Trader and the sale of one of our older vessels the M/V “Pantelis P”. Furthermore, consistent with our fleet deployment strategy of seeking profitable long term employment, the M/V “Tasman Trader” comes with a time charter which expires in 2012, thereby enabling us to generate stable and predictable cash flows enhancing our earnings and shareholder return. We believe that the proceeds from the sale of the M/V “Pantelis P”, the sale of M/V “John P” and the cash available from the private placement we completed in August 2005, coupled with the use of standard leverage, place us in a strong position to continue taking advantage of market opportunities, as these may occur in 2006.”
