The 'Kaileen', en route from Tallinn to Riga, had suffered a main engine breakdown on July 28, 2021, and was towed to Paljassaare on July 30. During the subsequent inspection, the No. 3 cylinder unit and an engine block was found severely damaged beyond repair which required the engine block and crankshaft to be replaced. The repairs at Plajassaare 31 were currently being finalized, and the ship remained stationary as of Dec 2.

Master fined £3,000 after grounding and£300 for drinking

The master of the "Flinterspirit" on Mar 28 has been fined £3,000 for failing to alter his course and prevent grounding the vessel on a small island off North Uist. Konstantin Golubev, 40, was further fined £300 for being drunk while it was docked in Stornoway, Lewis, three days after the incident on 19 March. Golubev, from St Petersburg, Russia, pleaded guilty to two charges at Stornoway Sheriff Court. He admitted to not altering the cargo ship's course at a designated position as required. The court heard he was asleep in his cabin when he should have been on the bridge. In a separate matter, he admitted to being drunk in charge of the ship.
