Moldovan-flagged cargo M/V Maryam (IMO 6611784), on its way from
Jeddah with barrels of bitumen, sank in Port Tawfiq in Suez on Nov 14.
Excess cargo possibly caused the accident; the barrels came to the surface
as the ship capsized. The crew was safely evacuated.

Have been Captain on this family owned coaster when she is being taken over from 'Seaplough' during autumn 1988 and re-flag and rename to Greek flag and 'ZAKINTHOS'.

Beautiful, strong vessel!
