Location: Marina di Massa      by: Giuseppe Marzulli
Area: Italy      Date: 30 May 2025
On January 28, 2025, the merchant ship "Guang Rong", over 100 meters long, collided with the pier of Marina di Massa due to strong winds and rough seas, causing the partial collapse of the structure and the ship's sinking.
The final part of the pier, a roundabout, collapsed into the sea.

Interesting Documentation. I hope nobody got injured !?

Hi Jochen. The sailors all survived.

Fortunately not a “2nd Schettino” - well documented ... by the way, we were in this region at almost the same time this year. After our trip towards Tuscany “Hündi” was cooling off a little in the Mediterranean Sea in Carrara Marina, on June 3rd ... but at this time you were already standing on Forte Richelieu ;-) !!

But I go to Tuscany almost every month ;-)

Das Schiff liegt vier Monate nach dem Unglück noch so da, wie am Tag des Unfalls. Glücklicherweise scheint ja nur Sachschaden entstanden zu sein. Die Behörden befürchteten ja eine Ölpest durch den Schiffsdiesel.

Bei der Bearbeitung sind viele Halos um das Schiff und den Pier entstanden. Das sieht nicht so gut aus.

It's true. It's surprising that the ship is still there.
But there are many legal problems. In Italy, dilapidated ships like this are called "carrette del mare".
And in any case, it's not easy to move it without risking environmental damage.
We're talking about a ship over 100 meters long and loaded.

Something is tilted here!
But it's not your job to fix it. But probably you can decrease the slight halos around the shadows.
