Crew Reviews, Ratings & Info for Dark-Ocean

In a significant development within the maritime industry, MSC has finalized a two-year charter agreement for trading operations in Greece. Under this arrangement, the vessel will generate a daily revenue of $12,000. This new charter highlights MSC's continued investment in the region, showcasing their commitment to expanding their fleet's operational footprint.

On the morning of November 20, 2019, the vessel 'Iapeots' encountered an allision with a crane located at Pier 2 in Volos while executing mooring procedures following its arrival from Heraklion. The incident resulted in noticeable damage to the crane; however, there have been no reports indicating any harm to the ship itself. Authorities are likely assessing the situation to determine the extent of the damages and any necessary follow-up actions.

On April 9, 2017, an allision occurred in the bustling port of Thessaloniki when the cargo vessel "Iapetos" inadvertently collided with the "MSC Donata" during its berthing process at dock number 6. The "Iapetos," en route from Heraklion and carrying a crew of 16 along with a load of containers, bumped into the stationary "MSC Donata" which was already securely docked. Fortunately, the impact resulted in only minor damage to both vessels, with no injuries or environmental pollution reported. Following the incident, authorities mandated that both ships remain at port until thorough inspections by the relevant classification societies could be completed. The "MSC Donata" resumed its journey towards Izmir at 1 a.m. on April 10, while the "Iapetos" continued to stay at the Thessaloniki Port Authority Container Terminal for further evaluations.
