Summary
On 22 April 2024, EF OLIVIA was adrift off the coast of Sicily, although its AIS status indicated that it was underway using engine power, when it was approached by HAYRIYE ANA. The overtaking situation and the actual movement of EF OLIVIA were interpreted differently on the two bridges. Neither bridge team converted the information available from radar, AIS and ECDIS into effective action in a timely manner. The vessels subsequently collided, sustaining significant material damage but causing no injuries or pollution.
Safety recommendations
No safety recommendations were issued because information concerning HAYRIYE ANA was not received and GAMA did not issue unilateral recommendations or conclusions.
