One lost container contained a class 9 hazmat (Malathion). Vessel anchored. One leaked Malathion into the water. Other containers below deck were damaged but didn't leak.

Not for navigation. The name is read automatically from official navigational warnings; a common name can belong to more than one ship, and a message may describe work the vessel is doing (cable, survey) rather than something that happened to it. Mariners must use official NAVAREA broadcasts and their national MSI service.
