Crew Reviews, Ratings & Info for Fwn-Sky

The bulk carrier Symphony Sky, which ran aground near Husum on the afternoon of March 26, has successfully completed its repairs. The vessel, which encountered trouble off the Husumfabrik, was under repair in Gdynia starting April 8. After an extensive repair process, the Symphony Sky departed Gdynia on June 9 at precisely 8:45 p.m. The ship is currently en route to Pasajes, with an estimated time of arrival set for June 16.

In a significant salvage operation, the pulp carrier 'Symphony Sky' was successfully refloated off the industrial port of Husum at approximately 8 p.m. on March 29, 2023. The vessel was assisted by the tug 'Kampe' (MMSI: 265515010) and subsequently made its way to the Husum quay under its own power for a comprehensive inspection. On the day of the incident, divers conducted a careful examination of the vessel, discovering four holes in the ballast tanks along with water ingress in a cavity. At the port, officials will assess the damage to determine the feasibility of proceeding to a shipyard for necessary repairs. The Coast Guard played a crucial role during the salvage efforts, remaining on standby to respond to any potential oil leaks that could occur during the operation. The 'Symphony Sky', carrying a load of 1,000 tons of pulp destined for Motril, ran aground at 2:36 p.m. on March 28 while navigating shallow waters. Initial attempts to dislodge the vessel, which included shifting hatches and pumping out ballast water, were unsuccessful, ultimately leading to the request for external assistance.

On the morning of March 29, the vessel 'Symphony Sky' initiated a self-reflation effort after running aground on a shoal in Husum. To assess the situation, divers are scheduled to conduct a hull inspection starting at 9 a.m. Meanwhile, investigators from the Transportation Board and personnel from the Accident Investigation Board have been dispatched to the location of the stranded ship. Should the self-refloating attempt prove unsuccessful, plans for a towing operation may be set in motion later in the day.
