Tug towing decommissioned freighter to scuttling position
The French cargo m/v "Kura Ora II", 1113 gt (IMO: 7813391), was towed out of the port of Papeete in the morning of Jan 11, 2019, to be sunk after several months of cleanup. The tug "Aito Nui" was towing the ship to its final destination. The "Kura Ora II", of which the owner company was placed in liquidation in 2016, has long served the Tuamotu archipelago. Between February and December the hull was prepared for sinking. French report with photos: https://www.radio1.pf/le-kura-ora-ii-tracte-au-large-pour-immersion/
