Heavy damages after collision off Funen
On Aug 6 at 9.45 p.m. UTC the 'Maersk Gironde' left the anchorage north of Fynshoved near the entrance to Kalundborg Fjord after inspections by the Danish Maritime Authority (Søfartsstyrelsen), and resumed the voyage to Gdansk with a revised ETA as of Aug 10. After cargo operations, the ship will have to undergo repairs to the bow damage suffered in the collision with the 'SFL Composer' north of Fyns Hoved, at the entrance to Hatter Barn and the deep-water route. The 'Maersk Gironde' hat hit the vehicles carrier at the port side stern, which was crushed above the waterline, and then slid along the port side hull until amidships, causing further damage above the waterline, such as breaches, bruises and dents. The 'SFL Composer' was towed from its anchorage in the Sejerø Bight into a drydock of the Lindø Shipyard in Odense on Aug 6 at 6 a.m. Report with video: https://fyens.dk/112/kollision-mellem-skibe-i-fynsk-farvand-vi-har-vaeret-forbi
