The Dvadesetprvi-Maj: Crew Feedback and Vessel Data

In a recent development, Crnogorska plovidba has placed both of its vessels, the 'Kotor' and 'Dvadesetprvi maj', on the market for used ships. This decision was influenced by the Ministry of Maritime Affairs, which stated that the government could no longer legally assist this fully state-owned entity in maintaining its financial stability. As a result, the government has mandated the urgent sale of both ships. The 'Kotor' has been under detention in Tyne since August 4, 2025, while the 'Dvadesetprvi maj' has been anchored off Laem Chabang since August 3, after arriving from Yeosou, currently at position 13° 12' N 100° 50' E. This move highlights the ongoing struggles faced by state-owned maritime companies and the pressures of maintaining liquidity in challenging economic times.

On February 15, 2018, the ferry 'Drujba', which was arriving from Batumi, experienced an allision with the docked vessel 'Dvadesetprvi Maj' at the port of Bourgas. The allision caused significant damage to the port side of the 'Dvadesetprvi Maj', impacting its hull, deck, and onboard equipment. Fortunately, there have been no reports of pollution resulting from this incident. Authorities are currently conducting a thorough investigation into the circumstances surrounding the collision.
