Zelek Star refloated
The 'Zelek Star' was dug out by bulldozers during the recent two weeks. On Jan 31 salvors managed to turn the ship 238 degrees so that the bow was almost facing the sea, almost in the opposite direction of the grounding. The IHC Beaver 45 of TAM – Taavura /Admir JV dredger assisted the salvage work. The vessel was refloated on Feb 2 and towed to the Ashdod Port Terminal on Feb 3 at 4.30 p.m. A detailed damage survey, internal external section inspections was carried out by the appointed technical teams and surveyors. The incident investigation was being carried out by the Harbour Master. The costs of the salvage were $ 3 million, while the price of the ship was estimated to be only $ 1.3 million, but the Transport Ministry had insisted on the removal. The ship left the port of Ashdod on May 17 at 8.30 p.m. and headed to Tuzla with an ETA as of May 29.
