On August 25, 2021, maritime operations took a tragic turn when the bulk carrier 'Sea Brave', en route from Varna to Haifa, made an emergency stop at the port anchorage off Chios island. The vessel's crew faced a critical situation when a 42-year-old Filipino crew member collapsed and lost consciousness, necessitating immediate medical attention. Prompt action was taken as the local vessel 'Isidoros', dispatched by the Prefecture of Chios, facilitated the medevac, swiftly transporting the crew member to shore. Upon arrival, he was rushed to the General Hospital of Chios but was later pronounced dead. The cause of death remains unclear, prompting the Port Authority to initiate a preliminary investigation, with an autopsy ordered to provide further insights into this unfortunate event.

On November 12, 2019, at 9 p.m., the bulk carrier 'Sea Brave' experienced a fire incident in its cargo hold while docked at Pier 26 in Savona.
