Bulk Carrier KASZUBY Detained After Paris MoU Inspection

The bulk carrier KASZUBY (IMO 9346847) has been detained following a Port State Control inspection under the Paris MoU. The inspection took place at the port of Straumsvik on 07 Sep 2026. Inspectors identified a total of six deficiencies on board, three of which were classified as detainable, prompting authorities to hold the vessel in port pending corrective action. The ship is flagged in the Bahamas (BS) and has a gross tonnage of 24,109. KASZUBY is managed under the ISM Code by Polska Zegluga Morska PP, which is responsible for addressing the identified deficiencies before the vessel can be released to resume operations. Details of the specific deficiencies were not disclosed in the inspection record. The detention forms part of routine Paris MoU enforcement activity, which aims to ensure compliance with international safety, environmental and labour standards for vessels calling at ports within the region. The vessel will remain under detention until the responsible authority confirms that the outstanding deficiencies have been rectified.
