Crew Reviews, Ratings & Info for Star-Piera

On March 26, 2020, the bulk carrier 'Star Piera' experienced an unexpected engine failure while attempting to dock at Puerto Quequén. The vessel lost propulsion and began drifting dangerously close to the quay. In a quick response, the crew deployed the starboard bow anchor, successfully halting the ship just meters away from a potentially disastrous collision. Fortunately, port tugs quickly intervened, assisting the freighter to safely berth. The 'Star Piera' was carrying a hefty 53,000 tons of wheat upon arrival and was scheduled to take on an additional 20,000 tons. For visual coverage of the incident, Spanish news channels provided notable footage and reports, which are available here: [Diario4V Photo and Video](https://www.diario4v.com/necochea/2020/3/26/videos-un-buque-choco-contra-el-muelle-en-sitio-25966.html) and [YouTube Video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tEIczRApnFM&feature=emb_title).

A new charter has been successfully secured, with the vessel scheduled for delivery between January 6 and January 11 at the East Coast of South America. This charter agreement, brokered by Louis Dreyfus, includes a daily rate of $12,000 with an anticipated redelivery in the Skaw-Cape Passero range. This deal further solidifies Louis Dreyfus's presence in the maritime logistics sector.
