On Dec 12, 2025, at 2:00 p.m. the “Patricia Nores”, when entering the Port of Piriápolis with 15 crew members and a pilot on board. was in collision with the Panama-flagged sailboat “Trindade” during the docking manoever. The impact caused damage to the bow of the sailboat, affecting the hawsehole of the anchor, a port bollard, and scratches on the hull along the port bow and quarter. The damage, howeverm did not compromise the watertight integrity of the sailboat. The fishing vessel suffered scratches on the stem. According to the captain, the incident was caused by a failure in the reduction gearbox, which prevented him from immediately reversing and controlling the manoever. The situation was reported to COTEC and the corresponding maritime agency, and the necessary arrangements were made prior to departure. A report was submitted to the COTEC duty inspector, who authorised the vessel's departure. At 11:00 p.m. the "Patricia Nores" set sail for the port of Montevideo. An administrative investigation to determine the responsibility for the incident was underway.
