Situation regarding Gloria D remains unclear
The "Gloria D" remains in Harburg though the defected of the diesel engines was repaired following the collision one week ago. The Hamburg Port Authority (HPA) would have allowed to proceed to the Lindenau Yard in Kiel with tug assistance. But the captain which was hired for the transit refused to guide the ship now. It is yet unclear how the situation will develop after the ship was obliged to leave the port of Harburg on July 1.
