Trica Vessel Reviews and Specifications

On the evening of January 11, 2017, at 8 p.m., the ferry 'Finnmerchant' lost its moorings at Hanko port due to severe storm conditions. The vessel, which had arrived from Rostock earlier that day, collided with the 'Trica,' which had docked at 5:50 a.m. after its journey from Lübeck. The 'Finnmerchant,' positioned at berth no. 3, drifted toward the 'Trica' at the ro-ro berth 2 after her mooring lines snapped during gusts of wind reaching nearly 30 m/s. Fortunately, damage from this incident was minimal, and the timely response from tugs helped secure the 'Finnmerchant' back to its berth. Both vessels experienced minor operational delays but were able to continue their schedules; 'Trica' departed shortly after midnight, while 'Finnmerchant' left port on January 12 at 8:45 p.m. For further details and images pertaining to this incident, you can refer to the Swedish reports linked here: [YLE](https://svenska.yle.fi/artikel/2017/01/12/fartygskollision-i-hango-hamn) and [Västra Nyland](https://www.vastranyland.fi/artikel/stormen-skapade-tillbud-i-hango-hamn/).
