Kolin 5

The 84 meter long, 4286 dwt tanker Kolin 5 ran aground in the Dardanelles off Kepez Limani, Turkey. The tanker was being used as a bunkering tanker at the port of Çanakkale when it suffered a power blackout after its main engine failed. The Kolin 5 drifted into shallow water onto a mudbank. No reports of injuries, damage or pollution released. The crew was able to restart the engine and a salvage tug was able to refloat the tanker a short time later. The Kolin 5 was towed back to Kepez where it was inspected for damages.
