Severe collision in Hamburg
« on: September 19, 2011, 04:57:00 PM »
This afternoon (Sept. 19) two container feeders, the CHARLOTTA and HANSE CONFIDENCE collided in the port of Hamburg. The CHARLOTTA rammed HANSE CONFIDENCE in the stern section and the latter is now in danger of sinking due to ingress of water in the engine room. I couldn't find any news report of this in English, but in German here:

Seems both are berthed to each other according to AIS signals.
