In the morning of Sep 9, 2018, the 'Titan II', one of the five Oceanography ships that have been stranded in the area of the Protected Area of the Laguna de Términos, caught fire. The fire started at 8:30 a.m., and until noon, no extinguishing work had commenced. The ship was stranded since Feb 4, 2016, when it ran aground off Ciudad del Carmen, at kilometer 13 of the Sabancuy-Carmen highway, near the Bahamita area due to a lack of fuel. Former workers suspected arson. On Jan 27, the 'El Caballo Eclipse', another of the five ships of Oceanografía had capsized 1,5 ilometers from the island in high swells.
