From the BBC https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-46948718
Kandy 9004683 + Maestro 8810700 LPG tanker
-
Terrible incident. I think one of the vessels is the ex Greta Kosan. A familiar sight here in Milford Haven.
-
IMO 8810700 tallies with Greta Kosan built 1990. Then 2015 GREEN LIGHT then 2015 MAESTRO
-
It cannot be KANDY 9004683 - according to her AIS she is currently in Sri Lanka.
I notice a number of media agencies are refering to the vessel as KANDY, (and Tanzania flag), but cannot see anything in the vicinity which matches or has a similar name.

Hi Krispen,
It seems to be CANDY Imo: 9005479.

No doubt the second is CANDY - imo 9005479 recently renamed from Venice was enroute from Russia to Lebanon
