A bulker master has been killed after a mooring line snapped on a vessel in Peru.
A report from the Exitosa website said the incident happened on the 37,000-dwt Unison Medal (built 2015) at Ilo on Tuesday.
The ship was loading copper concentrate.
Witnesses told police that a rope had snapped and the captain went to investigate.
It then appears he was fatally wounded as another line broke.
