Bulkcarrier grounded while waiting for beaching
The "Infinity" drifted aground at the coast of the Valsad district south of Alang on Sep 19, 2016, after her anchor dragged as it was not anchored properly. The vessel had started to move slowly towards the Dandi coast with wind and waves and ran aground in the evening, surprising fishermen community and local people. The vessel had been sold for scrap in 2015, and anchored off the Alang demolition beach following a court order. For maintenance and guard purposes a crew of 10 Indians had remained on board. The vessel’s engine was inoperable and the general condition of the hull very poor. No leak was reported reported, and all fuel and oil were debunkered already long time ago.
