Thanks Baldizza, that makes sense. That storm on 29th Oct damaged a lot of boats, particularly in Rapallo, which looked like the scene of a tsunami afterwards :-(

During the night on 29 october some mishap during very bad weather in Savona, a ship crashed with some boats including Beatrix. Baldizza

Thanks for the post, hadn't spotted that refit yet! She does look in need of some TLC. Anyone know what happened there?

Thanks to Phil English and Davidships. Now it is clear about the IMO number. I knew the problem of the shipyard which started the building, but I didn't know the following events.Baldizza

British-flagged but Italian-owned:
Compagnia Assistenza Navigazione Nord Sardegna Srl (CANS), Arzachena, Sardinia

Keel laid in 2002, but continually delayed by financial problems of the builder. CANS purchased the incomplete yacht, but then the yard was bankrupt and the owners continued to build the yacht themselves. With an arrest or two of the yacht along the way, she was eventually launched in March 2015 and completed July 2017.

IHS reserve the 87xxxxx IMO number series for in service ships which had previously not required/requested an IMO number.

Thank you, Axel. I read the IMO number and my doubts are about the construction year, that according to various sites is 2015, and I wonder how a ship built in 2015 can have such a low IMO number. Regards Baldizza
