Bulk carrier grounded on Amazon River
On Oct 13, 2019, the 'HB Tucunaré' ran aground on a sandbar in the northern part of the Amazon River. The bulk carrier was enroute from Porto Trombetas to the port of Vila do Conde, loaded with 74.000 tons of bauxite and with a draft of 11.58 meters. The ship got stuck near the Curuá Canal on a sandbar that was not registered in the nautical charts. There was no structural damage to the ship which had left Porto Trombetas, with practitioners on board around 11:30 p.m. on Oct 11. On Oct 13 at 12:30 a.m., the practitioners disembarked in Macapá, and the ship sailed on until it got stuck in the Curuá Canal, about 30 km from Bailique Island.
