On the evening of January 7, 2015, at approximately 6:25 p.m., a maritime incident occurred in the Kiel Canal involving the cargo ship 'Elvi Kull' and the offshore supply vessel 'JHC Transporter' at kilometer marker 88.7. The 'Elvi Kull' sustained only minor scratches, while the 'JHC Transporter' faced considerable damage, including a gash above the waterline. Following the collision, both vessels were instructed to dock at the North Port of Kiel for safety inspections and assessments. The 'Elvi Kull' was subsequently permitted to resume its journey, departing Kiel on January 8 at 7:50 a.m. It reached Heiligenhafen three hours later. Meanwhile, the 'JHC Transporter,' requiring repairs for its structural damage, was directed to the Knierim-Yard in Kiel, docking around noon for necessary work.
