An investigation has started in Australia into how a Greek bulker lost its propeller while at anchor.
The incident off Hay Point involving Sea Traders' 76,000-dwt Glyfada I (built 2009) happened on 10 July but has only emerged in recent days.
The Australian Maritime and Safety Authority (AMSA) told the Daily Mercury that it was “extremely uncommon”.
