Gundem-Makbule

On May 3, 2025, the 'Gujndem Makbule', which was sailing 12 nautical miles off Cartagena en route from Figueira de Fos to Milos, requested the urgent medevac of a crew member via VHF CH 16. The man was suffering from a heart attack. The RCC of Salvamento Marítimo mobilized the SAR boat 'Salvamar Draco' (MMSI: 225993950) with a medical team on board. The man was disembarked and taken to the port of Cartagena for further medical care.

On Sep 12, 2018, around 6 a.m. the "Gundem Makbule", enroute from Sceczein to Kalamaki, allided with the container m/v "Tina", (IMO:9277383 9277383), which was underway from Gdynia to Hamburg, upon leaving the New Northern lock of the Kiel Canal in Brunsbüttel towards the Elbe. When the ship contacted the berthed “Tina”, both ships suffered scratches at their starboard foreships. The “Gundem Makbule” also suffered dents at the poop deck at port side, and a position lantern was damaged. As all damages were above the water line, the vessels were allowed to continue their respective voyages in the morning hours. The “Tina” continued to Hamburg at 7.15 a.m. and had reached the port by 11 a.m. The “Gundem Makbule” was expected in Kalamaki on Sep 22.
