The underwater work carried out by Tenerife Shipyards on the bow bulb of the “Marie Curie” has allowed the Maritime Authority of Tenerife to authorise the departure of the ship, four days after the mishap that occurred during the docking manoeuvre on its arrival from Huelva, when a generator failure left the ship without propulsion, so it hit the dock and suffered a leak. The resolution of the problem by Tenerife Shipyards has prevented it from having to enter ASTICAN, a possibility that had initially been considered.On FEb 3 at 3:30 p.m., the ship left its berth in the East dock, in the plot assigned to Tenerife Shipyards, and made a large part of the journey to the port of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria at a speed of 21 knots, where it has rejoined the Huelva line.

While the “Bentayga Cargo” returnedfrom its first trip to Huelva after the mishap of the “Marie Curie” on Jan 30 in the port of Santa Cruz de Tenerife, the damaged ship arrived at the Tenerife Shipyards on Feb 2 in the East dock, where work has commenced to repair part of the damage, so that the Maritime Authority of Tenerife authorizes it to sail to Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, to enter the ASTICAN shipyard. The “Ciudad de Ibiza” is also in ASTICAN, where it has beensince Dec 26, 2024, for repairs of the damage it had suffered on Dec 18 during the maneuver to change berths amid strong winds and a pilot on board in the port of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, in which it damaged two sections of the hull on the starboard side. It was estimated that the ship may return to the services of the Armas Trasmediterránea Grou this week. The “Volcán de Tauce” has been moored since Jan 14 at the Santa Catalina dock in the port of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, after resolving the technical trouble that altered the La Palma line in December by inserting the catamaran “Volcán de Tirajana”.
