Crew Reviews, Ratings & Info for Rahmi-Yagci

On Aug 9, 2022, the 'Ocean Lion' has sailed from the port of Chornomorsk, destined for Incheon via Singapore, bringing the total to 12 ships to leave the Ukraine since a deal was brokered to resume grains shipment via a humanitarian maritime corridor out of the Black Sea. It was the largest to have left the Black Sea since the suspension of sailings, and was loaded with 65,000 metric tonnes of feed-grade corn. The corn was sold by Viterra to KFA Incheon before Russia’s invasion of the Ukraine, and the ship had been stranded at the port due to Russia’s naval blockade and Ukraine’s subsequent defensive mining of the waters. The 'Rahmi Yagci' also left Chornomorsk carrying 5,300 metric tonnes of sunflower destined for Istanbul. More than 370,000 mt of agricultural products have been shipped out of the Ukraine since Aug 1. The 'Bonita' is expected to leave Pivdennyi port for South Korea. She is currently being loaded with 66,000 metric tonnes of food-grade corn after loading was suspended following the invasion. However, there were concerns about the quality of corn aboard the ship wich had been stuck for months without proper ventilation and exposed to the heat and humidity. There is a risk of being rejected as she was not loaded freshly recently. The aflatoxin content is an important specification requirement for corn arriving in South Korea. If it is over 20 ppb, it cannot be used for feed production.
