@mercoglianos @TankerTrackers One issue that gets overlooked is the workability around intervention. A grounded ship with no clear flag support, no class and no insurer creates hesitation among salvors and coastal authorities. The delay becomes structural, not operational.
The grounding of tanker Kairos off the coast of Bulgaria highlights the danger of the Russia shadow fleet.
1️⃣No registry or insurance
2️⃣Ship now becomes the problem of Bulgaria
3️⃣Impending environmental disaster as the ship breaks up
4️⃣Increase in War Risk across the Black Sea
The #MVAlta which grounded off Ballycotton, East Cork, on February 16, 2020, during Storm Dennis after being abandoned by its 10-man crew during a storm in Bermuda some 16 months earlier, has broken in two.

The rising tide & poor light have seen firefighting operations at the #MVAlta finish for the night. The fire is substantially extinguished according to @Corkcoco. The public is being asked to stay away. @gardainfo locally will be on site overnight.

Fire continues to burn on board the ghost ship #MVAlta in cabins at the bow of the ship - @corkcountyfire from Midleton & Youghal remain at the scene. No reports of anyone on board. @rtenews
We undertook a survey of the Ghost ship ‘MV Alta’ which ran aground off Ballycotton a year ago after being abandoned off Bermuda in 2018 & drifting across the Atlantic Ocean. We captured some stunning drone footage of her being battered in a storm @captainbob76 @MaryP972
A year ago today. The #MVAlta washed up near #Ballycotton in the wake of Storm Dennis. Her future twelve months on remains uncertain.
Recording of this great lecture on the #MVAlta and an accompanying @EngineerIreland Journal article by @ciaranmcarthy now online.

International salvage & wreck removal expert says it could cost upwards of 10 million euro to remove the #MVAlta #Ballycotton as efforts to find any owners or insurers, continues. More @rtenews

Did you visit Ballycotton recently to get a glimpse of the MV Alta?
The 77-metre MV Alta drifted for over a year, skirting the Americas, Africa and Europe!
A weekend well spent exploring! 😀
