Fire in cargo hold
The 'Sea Brave' suffered a fire in the cargo hold at pier 26 in Savona, on Nov 12, 2019, at 9 p.m. The ship was carrying corn in bulk.

The emergency plan was immediately activated , which involved a team of fire departments of the port detachment. The firefighters then took the two bins out of the hold and secured them. No injuries or damages were reported, and the fire did not spread to the other compartments of the ship. An investigation by the authorities was launched.
