Engine failure off Tavolara

The "Eurocargo Napoli" suffered an engine failure near Tavolara island shortly after leaving Olbia bound for Cagliari on Dec 4 around noon. The ship reported the failure to the authorities and asked for anchorage off Golfo Aranci, north of Olbia. The permission was granted, and the crew managed to repair engine, but the Port Authority of Olbia nevertheless ordered the ferry to move to Golfo Aranci and sent two tugs, the pilots of Olbia and the mooring group of Golfo Aranci. The ship was towed to the south pier of Golfo Aranci at 11 p.m. The company's technicians started working to rectify the damage to the engines and then make the ship operational again. On Nov 5 it remained stationary in port. The ferry sailed from Cagliari on Dec 6.
