Ship breached by own anchor

The port side anchor of the "Hala" became slackened and struck the vessel's bow, while preparing to depart the port of Igoumenitsa on Nov 1, 2018. As a result, the bow sustained a small rupture to the hull, resulting in a controlled ingress of water into a foredeck bulkhead. The Port Authority of Igoumenitsa detained the vessel until the hull has been repaired and a certificate of seaworthiness was issued.
