A modern LR1 tanker has ran aground off New York on Friday evening, but the vessel was allowed to sail less than 24 hours later.
The 74,900-dwt Kamome Victoria (built 2011) ran into trouble just after 17:15 local time in the Ambrose Channel, according to the US Coast Guard (USCG).
The Panamanian-flag vessel notified the USCG that it had run aground while transiting outbound about five miles south of the Verrazano Narrows Bridge.
