“On the tragic loss of EMERALD STAR”

INTERCARGO is deeply concerned with the tragic loss of the 57k dwt Bulk Carrier EMERALD STAR in the morning of the 13th October with 26 seafarers on board. To date, 16 crew members have been rescued while 10 crew members are still missing. Our thoughts are with the families and loved ones of the seafarers. As long as there is still hope, our wishes are for the missing crew to be found and the loss of life in this tragic event to be minimised.
