Reviews & Ratings for the Zx-Glory

On August 7, 2026, the vessel 'Asia Treasure' faced detention at the port of Weihai after authorities identified four significant deficiencies. The inspection revealed critical issues that raised alarms regarding maritime safety and environmental protection. Among the deficiencies noted were: 07115 concerning Fire Safety, specifically the fire-dampers which did not fall under the responsibility of the Recognized Organization (RO); 14608 related to Pollution Prevention under MARPOL Annex VI, focusing on the incinerator's operations and manual, as certified by Overseas Marine Certification Service, Inc. (OMCS); 03103, which highlighted concerns about Water/Weather-tight Conditions including the adequacy of railings, gangways, and walkways for safe passage, also certified by OMCS; and finally, 07109 pertaining to Fire Safety, which involved the fixed fire extinguishing installations inspected by OMCS. These vulnerabilities not only compromise the safety of the crew and the vessel but also pose potential risks to the surrounding marine environment.

On October 18, 2018, the cargo vessel 'Ever Loading' experienced a critical engine failure while navigating the Dardanelles Strait on its journey from Malta to Odessa. The ship's captain promptly alerted the Çanakkale Strait Ship Traffic Services Directorate about the situation. The vessel became incapacitated near the Lapseki district, specifically off the coast of the village of Suluca, and began drifting towards Uzunburun before successfully dropping anchor. In response, the Coastal Safety tug 'Kurtarma 4' was dispatched for assistance, while warnings were issued to vessels transiting the nearby Bosphorus. Fortunately, the crew was able to repair the engine issues, allowing the 'Ever Loading' to continue its course with a revised estimated time of arrival of October 21 at 6 p.m.

In a notable transaction, a vessel has been sold to buyers based in India for a total of $13.60 million. This sale marks an important development in the maritime industry, highlighting the growing interest from Indian investors in expanding their fleet and enhancing their maritime capabilities.
