Dear Mr. Dougherty:

Pursuant to Rule 461 under the Securities Act
of 1933, International Seaways, Inc., a corporation incorporated under the laws of the Republic of the Marshall Islands (the

In connection with this request for the acceleration
of the effective date of the Registration Statement, the Company acknowledges that:

(i)             should
the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) or its staff, acting pursuant to delegated authority, declare the
Registration Statement effective, it does not foreclose the Commission from taking any action with respect to the Registration Statement;

(ii)            the
action of the Commission or its staff, acting pursuant to delegated authority, in declaring the Registration Statement effective, does
not relieve the Company of its full responsibility for the adequacy and accuracy of the disclosure in the Registration Statement; and

(iii)           the
Company may not assert the declaration of effectiveness as a defense in any proceeding initiated by the Commission or any person under
the federal securities laws of the United States.
