People on shore were seen throwing life preservers into the water to assist them.<\/p>\n<p>Per reports, the two ferries were out of service for the evening. They normally operate between Santos and Guaruj\u00e1, and services had been increased due to Carnival celebrations.<\/p>\n<p>At the time of the collision, one ferry was undergoing maintenance and was being towed by the other. There were no vehicles or passengers on board either vessel.<\/p>\n<p>The containership involved was identified as the Singapore-flagged Seaspan Empire (67,447 dwt).<\/p>\n<p>The vessel measures 294 metres in length and has a capacity of 5,100 TEU. It was attempting to manoeuvre in the harbour to reach the Embraoport terminal when the incident took place.<\/p>\n<p>The vessel had earlier been scheduled to dock but returned to the harbour entrance due to a lack of space at the quay, according to a statement reported by BE News.<\/p>\n<p>Following the collision, the containership sustained scrapes on its bow but no serious damage. It was moved to anchorage for inspection and was later permitted to proceed to the DP World terminal.<\/p>\n<p>The two ferries were secured and are undergoing inspections.<\/p>\n<p><em>Reference: Storyful<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p> \t<BR><br \/>\n <BR><\/BR><br \/>\n    MI News Network<br \/>\n \t<BR><br \/>\n<BR><\/BR><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.marineinsight.com\/shipping-news\/video-cargo-ship-collides-with-ferries-at-port-of-santos-crew-jump-into-water\/?utm_source=rss&#038;utm_medium=rss&#038;utm_campaign=video-cargo-ship-collides-with-ferries-at-port-of-santos-crew-jump-into-water\">Go to marine insight<\/a><br \/>\n \t<BR><br \/>\n <BR><\/BR><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Video: Cargo Ship Collides With Ferries At Port Of Santos; Crew Jump Into Water Screengrab from X video posted by L\u00da I Tr\u00e1fego Pago A Singapore-flagged containership collided with two ferries while manoeuvring in the Port of Santos, Brazil, on Monday evening, 16 February.
