Crew Reviews, Ratings & Info for Sea-Patris

On the evening of December 1, 2021, the bulk carrier 'Sea Patris,' while navigating from Piraeus to Novorossiysk, experienced a grounding incident just off the coast of Psyttalia as it departed from the Ikonio port area. The vessel, carrying a crew of 22, found itself stranded but was quickly attended to by nearby salvage vessels. The 'Karapiperis New Generation,' 'Vernicos Oceanos,' and 'Christos XXX' were instrumental in the successful refloat operation. Subsequently, the 'Sea Patris' was safely anchored back in Piraeus. Fortunately, there were no reports of leaks or injuries, and the incident did not lead to any marine pollution concerns. However, the Central Port Authority of Piraeus has temporarily prohibited the vessel from setting sail again until it can provide a class maintenance certificate from the relevant classification society.

The cargo vessel 'Sea Patris' has set sail from the port of Zeebrugge at 11:45 PM on February 15, 2023, en route to Bremerhaven with an estimated arrival time of 11:00 PM on February 16. The maritime ship had been detained since late January due to ongoing wage disputes impacting its 23 crew members, who had not received their salaries for several months. Besides the payment issues, the ship was also cited for violations regarding safety protocols. Fortunately, the situation has been resolved as the crew's wages have now been paid, and the vessel has undergone a thorough re-inspection prior to its departure.

The vessel 'Sea Patris' has been held in Zeebrugge since its arrival on January 31, 2018, at 9:30 a.m. The detention stems from unresolved wage issues involving its 23-member crew, predominantly comprising Ukrainian nationals, who have not received their salaries from the Greek shipping company, MCCL, for several months. The ship, which had transported a cargo of vehicles originating from Le Havre on January 30, was also found to have a number of minor safety infractions upon inspection by maritime authorities. A representative from MCCL is scheduled to arrive in Zeebrugge tonight to address the situation.
