The vessel was detained by Gibraltar Maritime Authority on 29 January. The vessel was released from detention 8 February after follow up inspections.
All the crew were paid outstanding wages and some were repatriated. The attending PSCO’s were informed by the crew that the vessel was scheduled to visit dry dock in Tallinn (Estonia) for repairs and that the outstanding deficiencies were to be repaired there. To colleagues knowledge the vessel has not been abandoned by the owners and given that the vessel is going to dry dock this would indicate that the owners are still engaged with the vessel.

We are aware of the vessel. Gibraltar Maritime detained the vessel under the Paris MoU PSC.
