Frequent sea mishaps…as usual

Within a week after a ferry collided with a fishing boat and a roll-on, roll-off vessel sank, two more RORO ships stalled at sea in Southern Tagalog.

The M/V Starlite Navigator developed engine trouble on its way to Oriental Mindoro from Batangas Wednesday night and had to be towed to port, while the M/V Torrejos ran aground the next day on its way to Marinduque from Lucena City.
