A platform supply ship (PSV) reportedly abandoned in Mexico has capsized and sunk.

The 2,200-dwt Caballo Eclipse (built 1985), owned by restructuring domestic owner Oceanografia, went down off Carmelite island on 27 January in a storm, local media reported.

La Jornada Maya cited the country's maritime authority as saying that it had developed a hull crack in December.

This got wider by about 1 metre this month, causing water ingress.
