Read Authentic Ratings for the Elbsky

On June 6, 2025, at 6:10 a.m., an incident occurred involving the cargo ship 'Elbsky', which was on its way from Rotterdam to Klaipeda. While maneuvering for mooring at the New Southern Lock of the Kiel Canal in Brunsbüttel, the vessel collided with the central wall. This allision resulted in superficial damage to the ship, including scratches and a noticeable dent on the port side bulwark. The impact also caused a slight shift in the central wall towards the New North Lock, leading to some dislodgment of masonry. Additionally, the maintenance shaft of the lock wall experienced a sideways shift, raising concerns over its stability. Thankfully, there were no injuries reported, and there were no signs of pollution or water ingress within the 'Elbsky'. After the incident, the vessel continued its journey and reached its destination port on June 7. The Brunsbüttel Water Police have launched an investigation into the circumstances surrounding this incident but did not impose any restrictions on the ship's navigation.

The vessel 'Priamos' has successfully concluded repairs at the Gdanska Stocznia Remontowa shipyard in Gdansk. The repair work initiated on October 2 was completed on December 9 at 7 p.m. Subsequently, the vessel set sail for Gdynia, reaching its destination by 10:20 p.m. The 'Priamos' was reloaded in Gdynia and is now on a course to Hamburg, with an estimated time of arrival scheduled for December 12 at 2 p.m. This marks a significant recovery for the ship following its grounding incident.

On September 12, 2018, the 'Priamos' encountered trouble shortly after leaving Kotka, heading towards Rotterdam. The vessel reportedly veered off course and grounded as a result of intense wind gusts. Responding to the emergency, the Kotka Coastguard, along with the Haapasaari station and the Kymenlaakso Rescue Department, quickly mobilized to assist. Fortunately, the situation was swiftly managed as the tugs 'Castor' and 'Viikari' towed the feeder back to Mussalo port. By 7:10 p.m., the ship was securely docked at the Multi-Link Kotka terminal, where inspections commenced to assess any damage. After completing necessary evaluations, 'Priamos' set sail again on September 23, this time under the tow of the tug 'Protector' (IMO: 6504228), aiming for Gdansk. The vessel arrived at the Gdanska Stocznia Remontowa on October 2 at noon, where it was scheduled for repairs to address the bottom damage incurred during the grounding incident.
