What Crew Members Say About Mykonos-Seas

On October 2, 2023, the cargo vessel 'Mykonos Seas,' while navigating from Novorossiysk to Port Said, encountered a technical issue as it passed through the Canakkale Strait. The vessel safely anchored at Karanlik Liman Anchorage under the guidance of a strait pilot at 5 p.m. After the crew conducted necessary repairs, the 'Mykonos Seas' received clearance to depart. The ship lifted its anchor and continued its journey through the strait on October 4 at 8:30 a.m., with an updated estimated time of arrival at Port Said set for October 6.

On August 11 at 08:15 AM, the vessel 'Mykonos Seas' experienced a temporary halt of its main engine while positioned off the coast of Pointe Manicouagan, Quebec, at coordinates 48°59'30" N, 68°03'05.4" W. The ship was conducting essential repairs on its cooling system to ensure optimal performance. Following the successful repair work, 'Mykonos Seas' resumed its journey and successfully docked at the Port of Montreal on August 12 at 11:50 PM.

On November 16, 2014, a heroic rescue operation unfolded approximately 75 miles southeast of Cold Bay, Alaska, when the crew of a Coast Guard Air Station Kodiak MH-60 Jayhawk helicopter responded to a medical emergency onboard the vessel "Mykonos Seas." The Coast Guard 17th District Command Center had received an urgent request for medical assistance concerning an injured crew member aboard the ship. Upon evaluating the situation, the duty flight surgeon recommended immediate medevac intervention. The Jayhawk helicopter was swiftly deployed from Cold Bay to assist in the operation. Successfully hoisting the patient from the vessel, the helicopter crew transported the mariner to commercial medical services in Cold Bay. From there, the patient was further transferred to Anchorage for necessary medical treatment. At the time of the medevac, the weather conditions at the scene were relatively manageable, with reported sea heights of 3 feet and winds gusting at 11 mph. This operation exemplifies the Coast Guard's unwavering commitment to ensuring the safety and well-being of mariners in distress.
