Ferry repaired at Astican
With the help of the tugs “VB Alborán” at the bow and “VB Mediterráneo” at the stern, from the Boluda Towage fleet in the port of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, the “Ciudad de Ibiza” entered the Astican yard, where it will be inspected and the relevant repairs will be carried out, so that it returns to service as soon as possible. Since Dec 18, it has remained docked in the port of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria awaiting its turn at Astican.
Allisionin Las Palmas
On Dec 18, 2024, the ' Ciudad de Ibiza' ran aground on a breakwater at the Cristóbal Colón dock, in the Port of La Luz in Las Palmas, after hitting the dock. A strong gust of wind caused the ship to drift towards the La Esfinge dock, when it was carrying out the docking manoeuvre to begin loading. At the time of the accident there were no passengers aboard, nor cargo. Apart of the external structure was damaged. The CCS Las Palmas of Salvamento Marítimo mobilized the SAR tug 'Heroínas de Sálvora' (IMO: 9960112) to the scene. First it was decided to wait for high tide for the ship to leave on its own, but two tugs were able to pull the ferry off, and it was moved to its usual docking area, where it was waiting to assess the damage at the height of the funnel on the starboard side. It had suffered a crack of about two meters just above the closed deck. Moments after the incident, the captain of the ship contacted the Merchant Marine and confirmed that there was a small leak in the trunk of stairs going down to the starboard engine room, which coincided with the impact of the dock. Despite this, the leak was under control. Once the tugs were able to secure the ship, two inspectors from this captaincy assessed the damage and opened an investigation. They asked the company to extract the data from the black box and contacted an underwater inspection company for a better assessment of the damage to the ship's hull. The allision with the jetty has also caused damage to the port infrastructure.

Oliver Design upgrades Trasmediterránea ferry in record time
Oliver Design has upgraded Trasmediterránea’s 219-passenger ro-ro ferry Ciudad de Ibiza in just 20 days. The team spent 10 days working onboard the vessel during her crossing from Trinidad & Tobago in the Caribbean to Algeciras in Spain, before completing the rest of the refit at the Gibdock Shipyard in Gibraltar. During the project, Oliver Design refitted the ferry’s self-service restaurant, upgraded its bar, renovated a 95-passenger lounge, updated 29 interior and exterior guest cabins and the adjoining corridor, and refurbished the reception area, stairs, public toilets and the crew lounge. http://www.cruiseandferry.net/articles/oliver-design-upgrades-trasmediterr225nea-ferry-in-record-time#.WXBxnEdt69I
