TradeWinds' sister newspaper Upstream reported Bourbon's 1,200-dwt Bourbon Arethuse (built 2008) was raided on Tuesday night, with an Edison Chouest-owned ship, the 3,150-dwt C-Viking (built 2012), also targeted by the same attackers.
The International Maritime Bureau’s Piracy Reporting Centre said of the Bourbon vessel: "Seeing the pirates, the crew raised the alarm, retreated into the citadel, alerted other vessels and shore based office by VHF and waited until the pirates had left.”
