Grounding off Rauma

On June 20, 2025, at around 7.20 a.m. UTC, the 'Stellamar', en route from Kunda with eight crew members and a Finnish pilot on board, ran aground off Rauma on the southern side of the island of Iso Järviluoto near a jetty. It got stuck in pos. 61° 07' N 021° 26' E. No oil leakage has been detected and no crew members have been injured. .However, a leak has been detected in the ship's freshwater tank. The Western Finland Coast Guard Section has been notified, and a patrol from the Rauma Coast Guard Station was at the scene of the accident. An aircraft was also sent to the scene to monitor and ensure that there are no oil leaks. The 'Stellamar' was successfully refloated with the assistance of a tug less than one hour after it ran aground and moored in Rauma. The border guard has begun an investigation to determine whether the incident was the result of negligence, though authorities did not suspect that alcohol intake was a contributing factor.
