Mv-Minoan-Sky Vessel Reviews and Specifications

On October 5, 2018, the vessel 'Paganini' was found discharging untreated sewage into Germany's territorial waters, raising significant environmental concerns. This incident occurred during a MARPOL inspection conducted by the water police at the Brunsbüttel station in Elbehafen at 10:15 a.m. Inspectors discovered that the ship's wastewater treatment system had evidently been neglected for an extended period. The sewage exhibited notable turbidity and a foul odor right before being expelled by the outboard pump. Furthermore, incorrect disinfectants were in use, and a blockage was identified in the sewage sludge return line. These issues culminated in the vessel potentially releasing around 950 liters of untreated sewage during its last voyage. Following a report from the Federal Maritime and Hydrographic Agency, the Chief Engineer was required to provide a security deposit of 800 euros for breaching marine environmental regulations. Additional minor discrepancies were found in the documentation concerning the oil journal and ballast water records, resulting in further penalties. The 'Paganini' subsequently docked in Hamburg on the same day.
