COMMENT THIS PHOTO(6)
Container ship was never be a choice for Gadani buyers, as only 2-3 plots can have the liberty to beach Container vessels till shore, or most of them beached far behind due to Heavy Propellers and draft issue,

I understand that vessel's beaching is a tricky operation, and has to be carried out in a controlled and careful manner, but the phrase "safely beached" sounds to me as if a doctor would say that the patient was "safely dead"... :)

I'd say that the vessel of 16 years of age, like the one here, was safer (to survive the next couple of years) than the vessel of 14 years, as the older vessel was past her 3rd special survey and all the related costs (usually dry docking) - but here we obviously have the fallout from Hanjin bankruptcy.
Pity, she still had some life in her.
