General Cargo Ship Golden Rose Detained in Aliaga

The general cargo/multipurpose vessel GOLDEN ROSE (IMO 8801620) has been detained following a Port State Control inspection at the Turkish port of Aliaga on 01 Dec 2025, according to a report issued under the Mediterranean Memorandum of Understanding (Med MoU). Inspectors recorded 17 deficiencies during the examination, of which three were classified as detainable, prompting authorities to hold the vessel in port pending corrective action. The 6,030 gross tonnage ship sails under the flag of Saint Kitts and Nevis (KN) and is managed by Elkashawy Group Shipping Co under the International Safety Management (ISM) Code. Port State Control detentions are imposed when inspectors identify deficiencies serious enough to pose a risk to the safety of the ship, its crew, or the environment, or when non-compliance with international maritime conventions is found. Vessels remain detained until the identified deficiencies are rectified to the satisfaction of the port authority and a follow-up inspection confirms compliance. No further details regarding the specific nature of the deficiencies or the vessel's current status have been disclosed. Authorities under the Med MoU framework continue to monitor compliance among vessels calling at ports across the Mediterranean region as part of broader efforts to enforce international shipping safety standards.
