Victress Ship Details and Seafarer Feedback

On June 3, 2023, the cargo vessel 'Victress' encountered an issue while en route from Berwick-Upon-Tweed to Port Ellen, carrying 1,750 tonnes of barley. The ship was reported to be Not Under Command (NUC) and halted for necessary repairs at coordinates 56° 25' 57.0" N, 002° 00' 59.0" W at approximately 06:20 a.m. UTC. In response to the vessel's situation, a communication schedule was established and effectively maintained with the Maritime Rescue Coordination Centre (MRCC) Shetland. Additionally, the marine coordinators at the nearby Seagreen and Neart na Gaoithe offshore wind farms were kept informed. The crew managed to complete their repairs by 11:30 a.m. and subsequently resumed their journey, now expected to arrive at Port Ellen by June 5, 2023.
