Main engine trouble after yard stay

The departure of the "Cape Maria" from Hamburg, which had been overhauled at Blohm & Voss Yard since Apr 25, 2017, which was scheduled for May 7, was postponed due to trouble with the main engine. The tugs "Perfect" and "Michel", which already had been requested to assist the bulkcarrier from dock 11 to Finkenwerder, had to be called off. On June 9 at 4 a.m. the ship was finally towed to the pilings in Finkenwerder-West where it was moored before proceeding further towards the Northsea.

Three Dutch nationalities were arrested in a hotel in connection with the find.
