Sierra Leone flagged Kayan-1

Sierra Leone-flagged Kayan-1, an 86-meter (282-feet) freighter carrying empty containers, was trying to moor due to the severe weather when it got dragged and brushed against two other cargo ships, the Netherlands-flagged Slochterdiep and Tanzania-flagged Adria Blu. It came to a halt near the shore at a depth of some 9-meter (30-feet), Coastal Safety said on its website.

UPDATE: Kayan 1 evacuated and run aground

In the midday hours of Jan 20, 2012, the "Kıyı Emniyeti 5" evacuated the crew from the "Kayan 1" in pos. 40o 58 '604''N 28o 53 '234''E which was down by the stern and had a list of 20 degrees to starboard then due to a water ingress in the cargo hold. The 13 men left the unloaded ship climbing down a ladder on port side. The ship had been blown by SW-gusts against the Dutch "Slochterdiep“ and the Tansania-flagged "Adria Blu“ at 5.20 a.m. while mooring and was breached in the stern. Both other ships were slightly damaged. The tugs and rescue boats "Kurtarma 3", "Söndüren 7" and "Tahlisiye III" tried to take the foundering ship in tow and intentionally grounded it on a water depth of nine metres.
