Date: 18th October 2017 Type: Sank Voyage: Taiwan to Vietnam
Reports have been received that Honduras flag vessel MING AN (2,673gt, built 2003) capsized earlier today off Kaohsiung, Taiwan.
The vessel’s crew abandoned the vessel. Thirteen were picked up from the life raft and another, initially thought to be missing, was rescued by a fishing vessel.
There are reports that the vessel suffered engine problems relating to fuel supply. And that she was therefore unable to manoeuvre in the heavy seas.
MING AN had sailed from Kaohsiung on Tuesday and was destined for Vietnam.
