Reviews & Ratings for the St-George

On March 22, 2012, at 08:27 a.m., the vessel 'Zouzou' was under siege by a group of pirates while navigating in position 02° 56'N 003° 13'E. The crew quickly sent out a distress signal, indicating the severity of the situation. Just minutes later, they activated a mayday alert on VHF channel 16, revealing they were facing an attack from approximately 12 armed assailants. Initial attempts to communicate further with the 'Zouzou' faced challenges, leading to concerns over the crew's safety. This brazen attack by the group of pirates originating from Benin resulted in the theft of valuables from the ship before the attackers vanished from the scene.
