Damage to the RHL Fidelitas
Images just sent to us via an anonymous gCaptain contributor showing damage to the RHL Fidelitas containership after she allegedly collided with a bulk carrier a few weeks ago.
18 containers inside the vessel were damaged as a result of the collision and the ship is now getting patched up at Focus Marine Asia Pte Ltd in Singapore.
This is not the first time bad luck has befallen the RHL Fidelitas however. In 2011 she tore up a seawall and a pilot boat when her reverse throttle failed to engage at the Port of Odessa.
