Why exactly do these companies pay such high dividends? What is their modus operandi?
Ridiculous profit margins.
Safe Bulkers (SB) has had a profit margin >50% for 3 years straight.

True. Revenue and earnings Trends for the most part have been down, down, down for the sector since 2008 for obvious reasons, but I suspect a bottom may have been reached. If correct, it will be a nice ride up. Tempting enough to pull me in.
NMM is a General Partner play with high dividends, low debt, low P/E, high profit margins.

I read that there is only expansion through purchasing new boats and shipping charters but profits are not high enough to buy new boats so it gets passed along to dividends. Then they do boat financing which just affects future earnings.
