Pusher tug stuck on deck of stuck supply ship
The salvage efforts for the supply ship ENE Vision', carrying the 'Miss Ramona' on its deck, have been suspended for the time being on Feb 11. The 'K Marine V' (IMO: 327701003), which had carried out another refloating attempt after repositioning, has left the scene after the towing wire snapped, and returned to the port of Puerto Plata to refuel and find new cables. On Feb 10 as of 3 p.m., the high tide had come in, leaving the supply ship still trapped behind the reef. Before, it had been moved about 150 feet, but it has been just along the shore. The hull was still banging against the cliffs but now had a gash of 30’ feet lenght at starboard side at the height of the water line. The large gash was in a sealed compartment so there was no immediate danger of the ship sinking, if it got to deeper water. At the aft there was a hole in the fuel tank right at the waterline. The ship was hard aground, while still moving a little as the waves lifted it, and it fell right back into the same position. The waterline marks at the aft end showed the ship was sitting in 5 feet of water with a draught of 12 feet The other large work boat has left and headed back to port after unning aground earlier the day. The crew was running low on fuel with the gash in their main tank. For now they have shut down the engines and only running generators to keep the pumps going.

Supply ship grounded while carrying tug on deck
On Feb 9, 2026, the supply ship 'ENE Vision' (IMO: 9203459), en route from the Amelua Shipyard in Louisiana to Puerto Plata, ran aground on the rocks at the entrance to Luperón. The ship was carrying the 'Miss Ramona' on its deck and towing a barge, when it got in trouble shortly after dawn, while headed toward Luperón Bay’s entrance, after experiencing engine problems. The barge the ship was towing was disconnected and maneuvered into the harbour with a 18’ panga with a 70 Jp engime and a larger fishing vessel, which was handling the aft end, benefiting from calm conditions. Despite assistance from officers of the local Navy base, the mothership ended up anchored on short scope and grounded on a reef on an ebbing tide. Rising winds and waves throughout the day pushed the 'ENE Vision' right up against the craggy shoreline with reefs on either side of the entrance. Two tugs arrived and tried to tow thr 'ENE Vision' back into deeper water, but the ropes broke. One of the response vessels briefly grounded on a nearby shoal. but managed to refloat with own power. A RoRo vessel also arrived to help, but could not intervene. It was tried again to free the ship on Feb 10 at 3 a.m., when it was high tide. The ship started leaking fuel, after the hull was dented and breached on the rocks. hTere were plans to remove the pusher tug from the vessel before more salvage attempts would be made. The 'ENE Vision' was formerly sailing as 'HOS Crossfire', and was sold by the previous owner Hornbeck Offshore some time ago. However, the vessel's name and ownership have not been updated in its Equasis record, and its status is listed as in layup. Its flag state was not officially recorded, but the vessel's stern was marked with "Puerto Plata, Dominican Republic".
