The "Krka" and "Orebic" were anchored in the North Port, and then drifted towards the northern side of Marjan. The third, the "Vranjic", drifted to Slatina. Salvage work was hampered by a stormy weather. The tug "Brodospas" tried to refloat the "Vranjic" while she was drifting off Slatina on Ciovo, but eventually withdrew from the action.
