On fire, again scrap, again Japanese waters
Chinese general cargo vessel Chun Xing caught fire at around 00:00 UTC Jan 18 13 leaving Kobe with 948 tons of scrap on board, see the map. Japanese Coast Guard received distress call and sent several patrol boats to assist the crew in firefighting. At around 0500 UTC vessel was berthed in Kobe. Reportedly 9 crew is safe, nobody was injured. This is at least third accident during last several months, involving fire on board of small Chinese freighters leaving Japanese waters with scrap on board, with fire originating in cargo holds shortly after vessels leave Japanese ports located as a rule, in Inner Japan sea. Something is wrong out there. Maritime Bulletin http://www.odin.tc
