What Crew Members Say About Km.amarisa

On December 3, 2019, at approximately 6:30 a.m., a maritime incident unfolded at the anchorage south of Bakauheni Port, Sumatra, involving three ferries. The KM 'Amarisa' experienced anchor dragging due to turbulent winds, strong underwater currents, and high swells. Consequently, she drifted and made first contact with the port side stern of the 'Nusa Asung', resulting in damage to railings and ventilation tubes. Following this, the 'Amarisa' grazed the port side bow of the 'Suki 2'. Eyewitness accounts and footage of the event can be found in Indonesian news reports: [iNews Video Coverage](https://www.inews.id/multimedia/video/detik-detik-3-kapal-motor-tabrakan-terbawa-arus-laut-di-pelabuhan-bakauheuni) and [Sindonews Article](https://daerah.sindonews.com/read/1464805/174/3-kapal-penyeberangan-tabrakan-beruntun-di-pelabuhan-bakauheni-1575344280).
