Yang Ming Marine Transport says a containership arrested in Australia over the weekend has been released.

Australian authorities detained the 4,250-teu YM Eternity (built 2009) on Sunday in a bid to recover clean-up costs of up to AUD20m ($13.4m).

The arrested vessel is a sistership of the 4,250-teu YM Efficiency (built 2009), which lost 81 containers in gale-force winds off the coast of Newcastle and Port Stephens in June 2018.
