WEEKLY GLOBAL MARINE INCIDENTS

Insanity rules the waves
Body of the deceased Master of general cargo ship VANTAGE WAVE remains on board since his death on Apr 19, while the ship was en route from Paradip India to Guangzhou, China, with cargo of aluminium ingots. According to Human Rights at Sea, it was asked by Master’s family and insurer Gard on behalf of ship owner and crew, to assist in attracting attention to this outrageous case of unlawfulness and inhumanity. Captain died from cardiac attack or with symptoms of cardiac attack, with no symptoms of covid, or so it is said. The ship was rejected body disembarkation by nearly all regional countries: Singapore, Malaysia, S. Korea, Taiwan, Vietnam, the Philippines and Japan, including of course, China. The ship arrived at Hong Kong outer anchorage in early May, and as of morning Jun 15, remains anchored. Understood Chinese authorities aren’t allowing ship’s water and food supply, either.
Dead bodies fear, demonstrated by Asian countries in this case and in case of Italian Master of ITAL LIBERA container ship, is absolutely irrational. Some things sometimes go beyond any human conception of society, civilization and morals.

Three ships troubled at Tuzla, Turkey
Two accident involving 3 ships occurred at Kartal, Tuzla, Turkey, on Jun 16, both triggered by stormy wind. General cargo ship APRIL (either in lay-up or repairs) dragged anchor and started to drift towards shore, tugs took the ship under control just in time to avoid grounding.
Ro-ro HASAN SISIK (in lay-up or decommissioned) broke off her moorings and drifted onto berthed general cargo ship BORAS (reportedly decommissioned). Understood HASAN SISIK was taken back to her birth or to anchorage, it’s not clear. In both cases, no severe damages were mentioned, no injuries.

Ro-Ro cargo ship heavily damaged by fire, Sudan
Fire erupted in cargo compartment of ro-ro cargo ship KING MARINE 1, berthed at Sudan port, in the afternoon Jun 13. It took firefighters some 5 hours to take fire under control, she was taken out to port’s outer anchorage and anchored at night Jun 13. Reportedly, the ship was destroyed by fire, but probably, it’s an exaggeration, her AIS was on while she was taken out of port and anchored. No AIS during last 11 hours, as of 0630 UTC Jun 14. The ship arrived from Qatar on Jun 1 with cargoes of cars and understood, cattle feed. Reportedly, feed caught the fire.
