The Very Large Bulk Carrier MAX WARRIOR suffered engine failure and a blackout in the afternoon Apr 27, while leaving Jiangyin port, Yangtze river, upstream from Shanghai.
The ship had two pilots on board and assisting tugs.
The bulk carrier went out of control in a heavily trafficked area with strong river current. Six tugs responded to an emergency, taking the giant ship under control.
MAX WARRIOR was brought to anchor in front of Jiangyin. Power finally was restored and the vessel resumed voyage in the afternoon Apr 28.
