Divers were able to weld on a temporary patch to the 172 meter long Statengracht at Rostock.   The patch was able to stock the water ingress allowing the vessel’s pump to clear out the cargo hold.  Reports state the vessel’s cargo of wood pellets (cellulose) had to be unloaded with the majority undamaged.  The water police had stated that a navigational error may have the caused the collision to occur.
