On June 20, 2021, at approximately 2 p.m., the container vessel 'Cap San Antonia' experienced a significant incident while navigating the waters near Santos, São Paulo. The ship collided with the pier of the passenger terminal serving the ferry route between Santos and Guarujá after veering off the designated fairway. This occurred as the vessel was departing from the port of Santos, bound for Paranaguá, and contending with challenging wind conditions. The allision resulted in a breach of the hull on the port side, occurring above the waterline. Additionally, a ballast water tank was compromised, causing its contents to leak into the surrounding environment. Following the accident, the 'Cap San Antonia' anchored at Santos Anchorage, located at coordinates 24° 4.87' N and 046° 19.74' W, where it awaited assessment from its classification company to determine the ship's seaworthiness for continuing the journey. Reports indicate that the vessel remained stationary as of June 21. The collision also had repercussions for the terminal infrastructure, as the mooring pier sustained considerable damage. In response to the incident, both the Port Authority and the Navy have initiated an investigation to elucidate the circumstances surrounding the allision. Notably, there were no reported injuries or instances of environmental pollution as a result of this accident.
