Amir-Joy

The 'Amir Joy', while en route from Varna to Alexandria, suffered a technical failure after it had entered the Canakkale Strait from the northern entrance for transit. The shop dropped anchor at Karanlik anchorage at 4 p.m. After the crew carried out repairs, the ship resumed its voyage and dropped anchor off Alexandria on April 4 around midnight.

In the evening of May 2 the "Maya S" finally left the Peters Yard in Wewelsfleth with Antwerp as first port of call, arriving there on May 4 at 11 a.m..

The "Anja" has been renamed "Maya S" after two years of lay up in Wewelsfleth after having been sold to the Romanian United Marine Compea. New homeport will be Giurgiulesti. The Peters Yard had done some maintenance work during the recent days, actually the engines were being tested by the crew. The vessel had berthed in 2014 after the allision with a mooring in the Elbe port Bützfleth. The MS „Anja“ Schifffahrtsgesellschaft mbH & Co. Reederei KG then filed for insolvency, and the ship went under the custody of an administrator appointed by the District Court. His efforts to find a buyer have now been a success.
