Detention lifted
The "Baffin Bay" finally arrived at the Falklands’ Floating Interim Port and Storage System on Apr 10, 2011, after having been detained for seven weeks in Montevideo. When the "Baffin Bay" arrived in Montevideo in early February, separate claims had been filed against it in the labour courts by two brothers who had not worked on the vessel for three years. After the courts were paid considerable bonds later that month, the "Baffin Bay" was given permission to sail but on Mar 4, when it was supposed to leave, it was detained once more due to legal action filed by the same lawyer for another Peruvian crewman. Unable to send the crew, consisting partly of Peruvians, home, the "Baffin Bay"’s owners then negotiated with each remaining Peruvian crew member and reached individual settlements with a new lawyer. The deals included the legal relinquishment of any further claims, and the "Baffin Bay" was then finally able to leave Montevideo, having two weeks left of the loligo season in Falklands waters.
