Yes Bernd, yes.
I was 2x at Malta for damage inspection of the ship prior to offering the substantial repairs of this ship. History: The ship, on the roads by the Greek island Crete, suffered containers' explosion in holds No.3&4 that created severe, great fire on board. The crew abandoned the ship. The ship drifted to Egyptian coast and lightly grounded. From there the ship was towed to Malta Drydocks and moored along a pier (see yr pic Bernd) for vessel inspection by the shipyards who were interested for repairing this heavily damaged ship. Finally, the CMA DJAKARTA was from Malta towed to Viktor Lenac shipyard,Rijeka,Croatia where she arrived mid September 1999 for repairs. Bernd, thank you for presenting the photo; actually 22.08.1999 was my 49th Birthday (but I already then returned back to Rijeka). |

| Cedric, that's why I said CTL and then to the beaches....Just look at scrappings and see how many relatively young containerships are going already without any damages, but just because they are surplus to requirements. |

| A lot will also depend on the extent of the damage and the cost of a repair. I don't think they will send her straight to the beach without checking the cost of repairs. |

Hi there, Pieter
Nice to read your comment and it's a very well 'story' of today scenario. Just for add info: At the time of accident, the Sea-Land Mariner was 8 years old (today's status is 'dead') and CMA Djakarta was only 14 months old (built 05/98; today she again wear her initial name CLASSICA and is fortunately still alive. |

| Dear Jadran, the current abundance of containerships will make repairs to a 12 year old ship not economical. CTL and to the beaches... |

I am pleased to recall that I had accomplished, within my 35 years ship repair practice, on duty of the Sales Project Manager at Viktor Lenac shipyard,Rijeka,Croatia, the significant restoration projects of two container ships, after sever containers' explosion on board, that had much heavily damaged the ships: SEA-LAND MARINER & CMA DJAKARTA (ex Classica).
Sea-Land Mariner suffered sever containers' explosion (by Greek island Crete) in two holds aft of the accomodations, and the complete aft two holds with hatch covers were restored, including topsides partial steel renewal of hull, also the steering gear room & 'miles' of electric cabling towards Engine Room. This restoration project at the time 1998 was worth 3,3 mil USD. The Cma Djakarta suffered very severe containers' explosion (also by Greek island Crete) in holds No.3 & 4, and this part of the ship was completely restored including the fitted-in complete new section of No.4 hold together with the new section of the No.3 hold double bottoms. Everything in the explosion effected areas was equipped with new. This restoration project at the time of 1999 was worth 20,4 mil USD. |

@ Captain Ted: There was no fire in the aft part of the vessel. I assume, that parts of corrosive chemicals had been sprayed or driven during firefighting from the midship alongside to the aft part of the hull and probably damaged the coating,

| the rusty spots beside the burn area on the hull are clear,, but why rusty spots of seemingly the same origin at the side aft behind the bridge, a inside fire which burnt out before could really get big ? |
