Collision in Emden
On Mar 18, 2016, at 5 p.m. the vehicle carrier "Schelde Highway", while leaving the port of Emden bound to Grimsby, suffered a rudder failure and was in collision with the "Vitin" which was coming from Sandnes and about to enter the port. No one was injured, when the car carrier slammed into the cargo ship's side. The "Schelde Highway" returned to the Ems Quay where she berthed at 6 p.m., the "Vitin" berthed at the Zungen Quay at the same time. While the car carrier had suffered only slight damage and resumed the voyage to Grimsby the same evening, the "Vitin" suffered significant damage at the port side foreship.
