Passenger Ship OCEAN ENDEAVOUR Detained in Caen - Ouistreham

The passenger vessel OCEAN ENDEAVOUR (IMO 7625811) was detained following a Port State Control inspection at Caen - Ouistreham on 18 Jan 2026, according to a report issued under the Paris MoU. Inspectors recorded ten deficiencies in total, four of which were assessed as detainable, prompting authorities to hold the vessel in port. The ship, which flies the flag of Portugal and has a gross tonnage of 12,907, is managed under the International Safety Management (ISM) Code by SunStone Ship Management. The specific nature of the deficiencies was not detailed in the inspection report, but the finding of multiple detainable issues indicates that port state control officers identified conditions considered serious enough to restrict the vessel's departure pending corrective action. Detentions under the Paris MoU framework are issued when inspectors determine that deficiencies pose a risk to the safety of the ship, its crew, passengers, or the environment, or when they indicate non-compliance with applicable international maritime conventions. The vessel will remain detained until the identified deficiencies are rectified and the flag state or a recognised organisation confirms compliance, allowing port authorities to clear the ship for onward sailing. No further details on the vessel's release have been provided.
