Read Authentic Ratings for the Eurocargo-Livorno

On the afternoon of May 6, 2019, the 'Eurocargo Livorno' encountered an allision with a jetty while navigating the southern port of Patras. The vessel, which had made its journey from Venice carrying eight passengers and a substantial cargo of 283 trucks, sustained minor damage during the maneuver. Fortunately, there were no injuries reported among those on board. The incident resulted in a small dent on the starboard side of the ship's hull, just above the waterline. Assistance was provided by a tugboat, allowing the ferry to be safely moored after the allision. The jetty also incurred slight damage from the collision. As a precautionary measure, the port authority of Patras detained the 'Eurocargo Livorno' until necessary repairs were completed and a seaworthiness certificate was issued by the appropriate classification society. After clearing the inspections, the ferry departed from Patras on May 7 at 3:10 PM, resuming its route to Bari with an estimated arrival on May 8.
