The 'Sam Ratulangi' with no crew or cargo on board ran aground near the mouth of the Gulf of Martaban, seven nautical miles from Thongwa Township in Yangon Region, in bad weather on Aug 27, 2018. It was speculated that the ship was either towed by another vessel for some distance before separating and eventually running aground, or abandoned after a failed attempt to tow it. The Myanmar Department of Marine Administration would contact the port authority in Palau as soon as possible in the hopes of reaching its owner in order to salvage the vessel.
