Incident Involving 'Santos Express' Damages Ferries at Santos Port
On the evening of May 6, 2018, at 8:22 p.m., the container ship 'Santos Express' faced an unfortunate incident while navigating into the busy Santos port. As it approached the Guartuja terminal, the vessel diverged from its designated fairway and collided with three local ferries, dangerously close to the terminal's piers. At the time, the ferries 'FB-18' and 'FB-19' were in a lay-up condition, while 'FB-28' had just finished its scheduled route, unloading vehicles. This mishap resulted in significant damage to the ferry operations. Following the collision, the 'Santos Express' continued its journey and successfully docked at the DP World Santos Terminal around 9 p.m., with the assistance of tugboats. The exact cause of this deviation from the fairway and subsequent hazardous maneuvering remains unclear.
