Complete Maritime Profile & Reviews of Delta-Sea

On December 21, 2020, the Unified Search and Rescue Coordination Center of the Greek Coastguard alerted the port authorities of Karystos, Rafina, Andros, and Lavrio about a distress situation involving the tanker 'Delta Sea'. The vessel, carrying 17 crew members and one passenger, encountered mechanical failure while traveling from Thessaloniki to Elefsis, situated northwest of Akra Kafirea. In response to the emergency, two patrol boats and two additional ships were dispatched to provide aid. The 'Apollon' successfully towed the 'Delta Sea' to the safety of the Thorikos Lavrio anchorage, where it was moored without incident. Following the operation, the Central Port Authority of Lavrio imposed a sailing ban on the vessel until necessary repairs were completed and a certificate of seaworthiness was issued by the attending classification society.
