Bulk Carrier JIN DA 828 Detained in Posiet Port Inspection

The bulk carrier JIN DA 828 has been detained following a Port State Control inspection conducted on 28 Aug 2026 at the port of Posiet under the Tokyo MOU regime. Inspectors identified four deficiencies aboard the vessel, one of which was assessed as detainable, prompting authorities to hold the ship until the issue is rectified. The JIN DA 828, sailing under the flag of Belize, carries IMO number 9469429. The vessel has a gross tonnage of 14,047 and a deadweight of 21,230 tonnes. It is managed under the International Safety Management Code by Jinda International Marine Management Ltd. Port State Control inspections such as this one are carried out to verify that foreign-flagged vessels calling at member ports comply with international safety, environmental and labour conventions. When deficiencies pose a significant risk to the safety of the ship, its crew or the environment, port authorities can detain the vessel until corrective action is taken and the ship is deemed fit to resume operations. No further details regarding the nature of the detainable deficiency or the expected duration of the detention have been disclosed. The vessel will remain at Posiet pending resolution of the outstanding issue and clearance from Tokyo MOU inspectors before it is permitted to depart.
