The 'Sumatra' which grounded in the vicinity of Angostura Inglesa on June 28, currently remained aat the emergency anchorage near Wallace Islet, Angostura Inglesa, approximately 800 kilometers north of Punta Arenas, with the support of the tug 'Beagle' and the oceanic patrol boat 'Marinero Fuentealba', the general service patrol 'Puerto Natales' and the speedboat 'LSR 4431'. As a precaution, oil booms were laid out to contain any possible spillage that might occur. The maritime authority has decided to open the channel for the traffic of ships and the support of farming centers. A second tug was expected on site on July 3 in order to tow the ship to an anchorage that does not interfere with the normal transit of ships, where repairs will be completed so far that the bulkcarrier may proceed to a port for permanent repairs. The Maritime Prosecutor was carrying out the first steps in the investigation to determine the causes of the incident. Spanish reports with photos: elpinguino.com/no... https://www.mundomaritimo...
