The Turkish flagged Karadeniz 5 ship, which was going from Nemrut Port to Samsun, collided with the passenger motor named Kalpazankaya, which was operating between Sarıyer and Anadolu Kavağı.
It is reported that 2 people were injured on the passenger boat.
The vessel KARADENIZ-5 (IMO: 7816513, MMSI: 271002106) is a General Cargo Ship built in 1981 and currently sailing under the Turkish flag.
Police and Coast Guard at the scene
While the front part of the passenger engine was damaged, there was a life market inside. The female passenger in her 50s, M.U. and 35-year-old C.B. injured. It was learned that M.U. had a head injury and a fractured rib.
TWO INJURED UNDER TREATMENT
Two injured were being treated at Beykoz State Hospital.
INVESTIGATION ON THE EVENT HAS STARTED
While the ship was anchored in Türkeli at the exit of the Bosphorus, the passenger motor was pulled to Anadolu Kavağı Pier. Police and Coast Guard Command teams launched an investigation into the incident.
THE PASSENGER TOLD THE MOMENT OF THE EVENT: I WAS VERY FEARED THAT WE WOULD SINK!
Gökhan Albayrak, one of the passengers who was horrified at the time of the accident, said, "We were sitting. My back was turned. It suddenly crashed. The people inside turned upside down. A woman fell to the ground. I fell, too. After the collision, the whistles blew. We were damaged from the front. The captain said he saw it at the last moment. We were going to sink." I was very scared.
