See how Copper Spirit responded to our duty to protect lives at sea.
While underway for discharge in Italy, our vessel, Copper Spirit diverted her journey after receiving instructions from the Italian Maritime Rescue Coordination Center in Rome.
We were suddenly alerted for assistance towards a distressed boat at sea and immediately heeded the call as part of our seafaring duty to protect lives at sea.
Despite the hours of darkness, Copper Spirit arrived on scene and rescued all 35 souls and was again instructed to proceed further north to embark more survivors.
After successfully completing the first and second rescue operation, we have dutifully saved and safely disembarked a total of 107 survivors.
Although it is part of international law, saving lives at sea is also a moral obligation and a strong personal belief of all seafarers across the globe.
We are truly glad to have contributed to the safety of 107 individuals. After all, it is our duty.
