- Ukrainian cargo ship M/V Arvin with an IMO Number of 8874316 broke into two and eventually sank while being at anchored on the 17th of January
The 46 year old cargo ship decided to drop her anchor at Bartin Anchorage in the Black Sea in an attempt to take shelter from the storm.
However, the heavy waves and strong winds broke her in half killing six out of 15 crew members on board.
With a length overall of 114 meters and a breadth of 14 meters, this 2,516 GT vessel was designed for river operation due to its long body and small breadth. Thus venturing out into the open waters during stormy weather met her fate.
The ship is owned by ARVIN SHIPPING LTD Care of Tesoro Marine LLC located in Ukrain.
Last year alone, this Palau-flagged cargo ship was reported to have 28 deficiencies from 3 different Port State Control Inspections.
46 years working cargo, that was a doomed ship.
Not true! Ship designed for river! And on top of that lack of maintenance!
there should have been non one on the ship at all, they had it anchored, they should have called in for e helilift and slept it off warm and dry in a hotel, they would all still be alive.. cheap ass companies.. hope they get the life sued out of them and have to close shop, they don't deserve to be in business, that captain needs his license pulled, he sat their and put his survival suit on and didn't warn or alert anyone of what had just happened.. so pathetic
@@deandee8082 you’re beyond dumb. Alarm was pulled, just after he exclaims “mayday!” Also, call for a heli? Boat sunk in under 5 minutes. In 5 minutes MAYBE the pilot is on his way to the helicopter, not even starting it. Takes 15-20 for an EMERGENCY pilot to get into the air.
@@deandee8082you literally don't know a thing about seafaring...
@@deandee8082 Bro what the f*ck are you on?
R.I.P......poor guys trying to earn a living dying is so sad.
couldn't have said it better...
@@AIRBORN_EEvEE6 died 6 lived
That company owners should be imprisoned for murder
Why?
@@sevensmith460 Not proper maintenance on the ship!
Commanding it to undertake a sea voyage beyond the designed capability of a river/canal vessel.
@@sevensmith460 because he let them use a freaking ship designed for rivers on the ocean which just screams disaster
R.I.P. to the six crewmembers.
This ship was not designed for the open seas but for rivers and canals
yes that's true.
What people from the American Midwest would call a "laker." Ships, like the famous _Edmund Fitzgerald,_ designed exclusively for freshwater river and lake use.
Yes, unfortunately 30 feet storm waves were too much for her
@@shane99ca Huh? Since when is Lake Michigan a kiddie pool. And the E.F was a freighter more than twice the size of that. You just posted that because of the song. Moron.
@@itsruf1 Probably shouldn't call others moron because EF went down in Superior, not Michigan.
Insurance companies have made it so that there’s almost no incentive to maintain freighter ships anymore. Just send it out there with a skeleton crew til it sinks then get paid for the ship and the cargo...fuck this world we live in now.
They've found sunken ships full of toxic waste off the Italian coast.The Mafia promise a skeleton crew megabucks to take one out and scuttle it.Then they shoot the crew.Sunken wrecks have human remains to prove that.They probably claim insurance on the ships as well as pocketing fees for taking the toxic waste.
Also it is an inland vessel
In the former Eastern Bloc, it is not uncommon for ships designed for rivers and larger lakes to be used at sea, at least near the coast. This is not a problem in good weather, but it is when there is a storm, especially as the wave dynamics at sea are completely different from those in rivers. If the ship was simply deployed incorrectly, this happens quickly.
from the video off the bridge that the crew took they were aware that they were going to break why were they not all off earlier ?
This is why ships get scrapped after only a few decades, sea water slowly eats away at the hull.
the captain and company needs to be scrapped, you can hear him putting on his survival suit but rings no alarms nothing, obviously the remaining crew members who were below deck sleeping woke up as they were thrown form their beds as the ship did a 180 degree dive to the bottom.. if I am the captain I call a general alarm everyone in their survival suits and everyone remains top side close to rafts... or better yet call for a helo vac and sleep off the storm in a nice warm hotel room.. just unreal they had to die when the shore was close enough to swim too, YES you can swim that far in freezing waters
@@deandee8082 again, you’re dumb. Captain did do an all call and an alarm, some crew were so deep into the ship that they were cut off from getting to the top. Nothing the captain can do.
Call for a heli? Ship sunk in under 5 minutes. Good luck getting a helicopter to land in under 5 minutes and evacuate everyone.
Always silly asf when someone like you comments
This is from metal fatigue rather than corrasion.
@@deandee8082 you don't understand what is going on, the people died because they might have worked under the deck at that time, and when water pours in, it comes a lot of pressure. on the bridge it seems fine, but down in the engine rooms and under the deck its pure chaos. also the alarm was rung but it sounded mostly in the cabins of the ship not the bridge, so on the video being on the bridge is calm but down under it is crazy.
походу вся машина и погибла...курятника как обычно спасся без сигнала в машину.
bet the insurance company wont pay out for that clusterf**k, 28 defeiciencies from 3 different port inspections and what was the captain thinking taking a river boat and anchoring in the sea im no sailor but dam thats just stupid he must have known and if not why not??
@Joshua Jason Karl it makes you wonder if it was done on purpose just to collect the insurance money.
His job was to transport 3000 tons of fertiliser from Georgia to Bulgaria. He diverted to the anchor of the Turkish coast to avoid worse weather off the coast. Alexandry Dyrchenko is the CEO of Tesoro Marine LLC which owned the MV Arvin through a shell company. I think he and his corporate buddies should face some serious questions over this, and maybe spend a long time in a small room with bars on the windows.
Freighter built for the river on the open sea....in not the roughest seas on the Black......like a wet toothpick....
Yeah, I've seen the Black much nastier than this. That old hulk was doomed as soon as they began using it out in the open seas.
R.I.P
Царствие небесное погибшим.Очень жаль экипаж.
Это страшно очень,жаль ребят 😢
I would like to know why 6 crew members died? What happened that they couldn't escape the ship?
same. could help future crews. to decide to learn swimming or something.
I was wondering if they were down below when the ship broke in half. The rush of water coming in and as cold as it is could overwhelm anyone. That must have been terrifying!!
@@brucemoore1860 the ship was still floating for quite a long time, though I'm sure the bottom was flooding. Even still, it seems like people should have been able to get out. I can only assume they were trapped with no escape. 😢
I did a little more research and this vessel had around 30 safety infractions or concerns among multiple coast guard of different countries. It's a real shame. Just another example of companies not valuing the lives of their employees.
Another major note that is this ship was built as a river/lake ship. It was not built for open water oceans/seas. And in this video it was anchored at sea in bad weather. So many ingredients to this recipe for disaster.
@@kanehoward7050 That research you did is on the video! I would think the crew who died would have drowned or died from hypothermia. I see no rescue ships close by and it sank in 5 minutes. No sign of a lifeboat either.
@@xabeque8 ah, yes it is. This wasn't the first video I watched of it. I must have never fully watched this one. I only posted that here because this is the one I posted the question trying to figure out why the crew members weren't able to escape. When shit hits the fan, 5 minutes is a long time.
Those who died - were they trapped below (?) or did they drown in the water external to the ship ? If the latter then were they wearing lifevests ?
watching the video it's highly unlikely they were trapped below. Basically the ship was a piece of crap and broke in half. Might not sound like much but in January...yeah. check your water temperature.
@@jonnyb70 they might've been trapped under the deck as the crew on the bridge didnt ring the general alarm (at least not within 2 minutes after the hull broke)
Trapped in the engine room. Try climbing ladders and stairs when the ships stern was at a 45 degree angle.
And the idiots in the bridge didn't start immediately the emergency warning alarm. So the guy's below didn't have the few seconds or more that would make the difference between being trapped or get out.
46 years !!!!!!
That's not remarkable for a laker. American lakers have been known to be in service for over 100 years. Fresh water is much less corrosive than salt.
Of course, _any_ ship will fail prematurely if she isn't looked after.
@@shane99ca yes that is true ! 100% Titanic is not so rusted on the ocean floor as this Arvin ship is .....
@@TheRazvy1990 46 years its nothing if maintenance its upkeep.
These are whats known as coffin ships. 👍🏻
That's one way to put it.
This is season 80, episode 95 of the "That will do" series, made in the post-communist states.
Excellent description, very well said.
Slap some flextape on it we good
If it was made in 1975 in the communist states, it has done well. Ships don't normally last 45 years
надо значит надо
When was the last inspection done on that old ship?.... Company owners should be held responsible for those men on that ship! 😡... Probably blamed Russia for its sinking
The cargo ship broke in half of a stormy water and there is a weird sound and the ship broken in half and no survivers and the MV arivin drop the anchor and there is the ship in the vid was called mv arivin in the Black sea and the deck broke in haolf leaving no survivers was found rip mv arvin
Dont mind the haolf lol
Vessel type volgo balt river ship
finaly some real footage
Very sad, sank within view of a couple of ships and 6 lost.....
The front fell off.
I wonder if it could've survived when being turned by 90 degrees with the sides towards the waves. But then again, it wasn't made for the ocean and probably already weakened from previous travels.
Man muss sich wundern dass der Eimer überhaupt so lange geschwommen ist. Sowjetische Planungskunst, Bauqualität, Wartung und Pflege führen früher oder später immer zu Problemen.
It just wasn't made for the ocean, it was made for rivers and lakes
How about that anchor though...
They knew they were sailing an old, unfit, and questionably maintained ship. They shouldn't be surprised that they didn't get away with it.
Oh, but Alexandyr Dyrchenko will probably get away with it. Blame the captain and hide behind shell corporations. Dyrchenko is CEO of Tesoro Marine LLC, which owned the ship through a shell company. The ship had been found to have multiple faults in repeated inspections, but continued to operate, that's not just the captain's fault.
46 year old rust bucket
If the vessel was never designed for open sea navigation but instead for rivers, that doubtless was a major contributory factor in the catastrophic hull fracture.
The video actually states that this was the reason for the vessel being so catastrophically fratcturd by the rough sea state.
The vessel had a history of operating with deficiencies and was indeed cited for it.
Being poorly maintained and having untreated corrosion may not have factored into the fracture if it was indeed caused by the vessel being operated in open ocean and in a sea state that it was never designed to withstand.
That apart, no one should have died as a consequence of this incident.
0:25
so they didn't go wake everyone on board, real ncie, should have rang the emergency sirens ASAP, first sing of damage, good grief people, really pissesme off, 6 crew members awoke under water and too deep int he vessel to swim out, a few well placed sirens would have alerted them to abandon ship, there was time to get off from any place within the ship, no one warned them, no phone calls nothing just let the angle of their beds wake them up after it was far too late to evacuate, I hope this canptin and the company pays their family's well, furthermore if the weather was that bad there should have beena general alert for everyone to remain top side so if anything happened an escape was simple, SO THAT MEANS everyone in their survival suits, ALL life rafts on hand ready to go, same for crew.. this shit that's unavoidable is really reprehensible.. you can hear the men in the wheelhouse putting on their survival suits while they warned nbo one, no siren, no nothing, not a phone call or anything.. that's sickening, they should have to take care of any surviving children
Probably needed more anchor chain out
They probably should have not anchored and just idled into the wind to keep position. The keel snapped as the wave passed under the ship from the front. The anchor possibly helped snap it if it was putting extra downward pressure on the bow while the wave acted as a fulcrum amidships.
Another nice insurance job!
I thought that 3 are death
Fair winds and following seas. o7
How stupid are they to use a ship that wasn't made for the open sea? That thing was made for rivers!
There's nothing rare about that on the Black Sea. The owners can pick up a ship like this for a lot less than a new seaworthy vessel. Then they set up a shell company to own it, to limit the liability, and register it to some territory with lax regulations, and squeeze as many trips out of it as possible. There's a long line of men looking for work, who reluctantly crew these rustbuckets, while the owners play golf back on dry land
the sound sucks and doesn't match to the pictures at all

observation: I know little about open seas shipping but have seen Gordon Lightfoot twice and he has drank enough to fill Lake Michigan where storms are no joke. The most dangerous thing in Lake Michigan is Oprah swimming at her summer house. Rip currents . . .
Fitzgerald sank in superior not Michigan
@@adventureguy4119 whooooosh. Lightfoot sank in Michigan
I would of started engines & full a stern, then you'd be driving away from the water flooding in it might of made the beach
anchor was already deployed?
Maybe in the cartoons.
2 issues come to mind. First, the anchor was deployed. From the way the ship broke, I don't think they could release it. Who would be crazy enough to cross the break to access the mostly severed bow? Second, assuming they were able to sever or release the chain, the bow section was still partially attached, operating in reverse would be extremely slow at best because that front section would act like a scoop and dig in quicker and probably cause the sinking to accelerate greatly.
@@CrisisGuildWOW like is said. It is a cartoon fix.
@@jkotarsky ya sorry for giving the man the respect of a detailed reason why vs a dogmatic one.
UKRAINIAN SHIP NO COAST GUARD ITF ISM AUTHORITIES TO INSPECTION?
The crew (and I believe the shipping company) were Ukrainian. The ship was sailing under the flag of Palau.
The mayday call was stupid. "Mayday, my ship is broke." Hey guys, ship is broke. you know, if your not too busy, I'm going to need some help. Ship is broke. Mfer., have some urgency! "SHIP IS SPLIT IN HALF GOING DOWN GOING DOWN! HELPE EEJEEKLEOELPO." is more like it.
Maybe you're not aware, but "MAYDAY" is an emergency call and anyone who's listening knows that you only use that word if you are in fucking deep shit. Furthermore, he likely made that call on VHF channel 16, which is the emergency channel on which not only coast guard listens, but also all ships in the vicinity, and every one of those listeners is supposed to have had radio training and know that MAYDAY is an emergency call.
Considering the panic the guy must've been under and the language barrier, he did an okay job communicating the emergency, but maybe could've done a better job by also indicating the location.
I like to see what YOU would have said in sheer panic and chaos. The ship suddenly broke in half. "Would you like a nice cup of tea, honey?".
@@alex2143 In that case dude was cool as a clam. Still, "SHIP IS SPLIT IN HALF GOING DOWN GOING DOWN! HELPE EEJEEKLEOELPO."
"Mayday" is an information strong enough to express the need for immediate assistance. Any mariner hearing this knows fellow people are in very serious trouble and need to evac asap. The most important following are ship's name, position and number of people onboard. Other contextual information may follow if conditions allow.
@@Gavichap Excuse me, sorry to bother you, but do you remember that ship I took onto the seas earlier this morning, right, you know the big long one, now do you remember that it was in one piece when I took it out this morning, ok, now the thing is it's sort of like in two pieces rather than one right now, which is making things a little tricky in regard to staying out of the sea and all that kind of thing, anyhow it would be great if someone could pop over and give us a hand, all the best, hope to hear from you soon.
Ukranian seamanship at it's best?
If they had thought of safety and health they would have not put this ship out to sea
Ukrainian has nothing to do with it. My American company would send us out on a wooden pallet, if they thought they could make a dollar or two.
they did just about everything one could have done wrong, and it cost the lives of 6 crewmen, irresponsible and they need to be held accountable, this is how the USA will be in 25 years, full on commie

The Captain of the ship is a greedy man.
What about the owners, Tesoro Marine LLC, with their CEO Alexandyr Dyrchenko? Were they not greedy?
The captain may have been stupid, and maybe in fear of his job... but CEOs usually have more money than they need, and yet they still gamble with people's lives to make more.
