Discover the Baltica-Hav: Ratings & Maritime News

On November 5, 2018, the vessel 'Baltica Hav', while navigating from Elsfleth to Oldenburg, encountered a mishap on the Hunte River. The ship unexpectedly drifted perpendicularly across the fairway, leading to it becoming stuck near the Department of Maritime and Logistics Studies in Elsfleth. Fortunately, the situation was resolved quickly, and the 'Baltica Hav' was able to resume its journey, successfully docking in Oldenburg at 2:50 p.m.

The freighter 'Union Pluto', which departed from Dordrecht on March 11, encountered inclement weather prompting it to seek refuge off Margate. Upon the reopening of Ramsgate, it was discovered that the designated berth for 'Union Pluto' had sustained damage from high waves. As a result, port authorities made the decision to reroute the vessel's cargo of specialized aggregate to Whitstable. 'Union Pluto' successfully docked at the east quay in the early hours of March 13. Following her delivery, the vessel set sail light for Calais on the afternoon tide of March 14, with plans to load another shipment of stone bound for Whitstable. This second delivery occurred early on March 15. In a busy schedule, 'Union Pluto' was slated to load a third consecutive cargo over the weekend at the Isle of Grain terminal on the River Medway, with the load coming from Glensanda Quarry in Scotland.
