Extra info:
The ship spent six months capsized in Antwerp harbour during 2007. The vessel was towed to Pusan (South Korea) for repairs in March 2008 by the tug Salvigilant.
Daewoo Frontier arrived in Durban in April 2009 to deliver a number of motor vehicles, but was placed under arrest soon afterwards and went to anchor off Umhlanga where she remained quite long. During this time the ship lost two anchors including long lengths of chain.
The ship’s latest troubles, financial this time, followed an application for her sale by judicial auction in 2010. She was then sold for scrap.
