This a fisherman’s storyRhodes beachand one ‘manifestation’ From six jiggers with Chinese flags have the same name and nearly identical surnames: ‘Lu Rong Yuang Yu 178’, ‘696’, ‘667’, ‘678’ and ‘698’. In the first, twenty-seven crew members from Morracense shipowner Pesqueras Gadimar and about twenty for each Asian flag-bearer of Rongcheng Rongyuan Fishing. a story with an approach, a shipwreck –no death– and a movie chase took more than three days. ‘Spoiler’: Well done for Galician sailors and the integrity of the 55-metre-long boat built in 1988 by Astilleros Gondán.
You must travel to the Southern Cone fishing area by February 2020 and within 200 miles of Argentine judicial waters. The details of the news are based on the investigations carried out by the Permanent Marine Accidents and Incidents Investigation Commission (Ciaim) under the Ministry of Transport and announced a few weeks ago. ‘Playa de Rodas’ was sailing south to change fishing grounds when she spotted ‘Lu Rong Yuang Yu 178’ about two miles away. And the question is not how the collision occurred, but rather how the collision occurred, which has already been analyzed by Faro de Vigo of the Prensa Ibérica group and whose causes are attributed to an oversight on the command bridge of the Bueu fishing vessel. What happened then.
The collision occurred at 3:10 am: The starboard side of ‘Playa de Rodas’ collided with the starboard side of the ‘Lu Rong Yuang Yu 178’ jigger. “After confirming no leaks, the captain tried to contact the Chinese-flagged vessel, but received no response.” This dialogue was almost nonexistent. Soon after, the crew of the Galician fishing boat observed a jigger from the same company approaching the victim. “Dismantling and transporting of all kinds of equipment, supplies and catches manually and by cranes began”, as well as radial cutting the starboard articulated arms and throwing them into the sea for squid fishing. There were already two ‘Lu Rong’ at the crash site, but the third would arrive just four hours after the impact.
The captain of ‘Playa de Rodas’ was only able to interact briefly with his counterpart when his counterpart offered him bilge pumps to control the leak. The Asian refused them. ‘Lu Rong Yuang Yu 178′ would sink hours later, with no crew on board and after her brothers’ unsuccessful attempt to tow her. “Given the lack of response to offers to provide assistance and to attempts to communicate in general, the ship [español] left the area to continue his fishing campaign,” the report continues. The damage did not jeopardize the stability of the fishing vessel, which was to be repaired in a dry dock in the port of Montevideo. Back to work has never been easy.
“Next day [11 de febrero], ‘Playa de Rodas’ began to be harassed by three other ships.”, with the same name as the one he boarded but with different endings: 058, 678 and 698. “Flares were fired on his deck and sabotage attempts were made”, pieces of rope were lowered to disable the propeller. They also received death threats over the phone. The ship’s commanders had to report the situation to the Fisheries Monitoring Centre, which advised Madrid to approach within 200 miles of Argentina to receive protection from Naval Prefecture. In the end, no intervention was required, but ‘Playa de Rodas’ was not able to return to work until the 13th.
