A large landmass has failed to yield the right-of-way to a freighter, carelessly colliding with the vessel. The bulker was in ballast and it is reported that the entire cargo became wet. The Panama-flagged bulker MV Wakashio was underway from China to Brazil when it ran aground Saturday night off Pointe d'esny on Mauritius' south-eastern coast during a voyage from China to Brazil. At 203,130 deadweight tonnes, the 300-meter MV Wakashio is classified as a large capesize bulk carrier. Reports say the local Coast Guard attempted to contact the ship before it ran aground.
