Ship stuck in Pohang due to lack of bunker

The "Partizan" was stuck in Pohang with engine and generators cut off because of a lack of fuel after the Pohang bunker company refused to bunker the ship, fearing probable repercussions, because the ship and her owner were blacklisted by the United States Department of the Treasury for illegal trade with North Korea. The master filed a sea protest. The crew left the ship and was accommodated in a hotel. The "Partizan" sailed from Pohang again on March 18 at 5.30 a.m.
