The 'Francesco Nullo' has concluded its charter agreement with DFDS as of October 3, 2025.

On October 4, the vessel anchored off the coast at coordinates 43° 20' N and 005° 17' E, signaling its readiness for upcoming operations under its new banner.

On August 25 at 7 a.m., the ferry 'Qezban' departed from Tuzla following essential repairs. The vessel is now en route to Cesme, with an estimated time of arrival set for August 26. This marks a significant milestone for the 'Qezban' as it returns to service, reconnecting vital maritime routes.

In recent maritime developments, the ferry 'Qezban' underwent a thorough inspection by a dedicated panel of surveyors. Following this evaluation, both the class surveyor and Yalova's Harbour Master determined the need to tow the vessel from Sevketiye anchorage to its next destination. The capable tug 'Altug' has been enlisted for this towage operation. On January 11, the towage operation commenced after all necessary approvals were secured. The ferry successfully docked at the Sefine Shipyard on January 14 at 11:15 a.m. After completing its maintenance, the 'Qezban' departed the yard on March 23, setting course for Tryla. However, on March 31, the ferry anchored at coordinates 40° 44.20' N 029° 29.52' E, where it has remained since, signaling a potential pause in its journey.

On January 10, the ferry 'Qezban' was towed to Sevketiye Anchorage, located at the northern entrance of the Canakkale Strait, following an unfortunate incident. Class and P&I surveyors boarded the vessel to assess the cause of the incident and evaluate the extent of the fire-related damage. Due to a violation of safe passage regulations in the strait, authorities have imposed a fine on the vessel. Ongoing inspections are being conducted by the surveyors to ensure compliance and safety.
