A cement-laden cargo vessel, MV Lady Sandra, runs aground off Clonbrook on Guyana’s East Coast Demerara after experiencing main engine failure during a voyage from Georgetown. The Maritime Administration confirms the incident and says six crew members are rescued by the Guyana Defence Force Coast Guard.
According to the accounts, the vessel departs Georgetown on Saturday, November 7, bound for New Amsterdam, Berbice, carrying cement. After the main engine failure, the Master anchors the ship that evening, but the vessel drags its anchor and grounds early on Sunday, November 8. Outlets also report that the ship remains grounded on the foreshore.
Across coverage, the central facts—engine failure, grounding off Clonbrook, and a six-member rescue—are consistent. The differing details are mainly about how much of the timeline is spelled out, and how each outlet introduces the Maritime Administration’s confirmation.
