MV Drake

MV ''Drake'', previously known as ''Pasha Bulker'', is a Panamax bulk carrier of operated by the Lauritzen Bulkers shipping company and owned by Japanese Disponent Owners.〔 While waiting in the open ocean outside the harbour to load coal, ''Pasha Bulker'' ran aground during a major storm on 8 June 2007 on Nobbys Beach in Newcastle, New South Wales, Australia. It was refloated and moved to a safe location offshore on 2 July 2007 at 9:48 p.m. AEST before being towed to Japan for major repairs on 26 July 2007.
''Pasha Bulker'' was built in 2006 by Sasebo Heavy Industries Co., and sails under the flag of Panama as a flag of convenience. It is in length with a beam of and a cargo hold capacity (grain) of .〔
== Storm and beaching ==
(詳細はNewcastle Port Corporation radioed the 56 moored ships waiting off the coast to load coal to warn them to move out to sea to escape an approaching storm.〔 ''Pasha Bulker'', along with 10 other ships, did not heed the warning. As the storm hit, ''Pasha Bulker'' could not clear the coast and it beached at 9:51am. The ship never called for tug assistance, ran aground with a fully operational engine room and still had both anchors stored in the hawsepipes leading some maritime experts to believe that proper precautions were not taken by the ship's captain.
After ''Pasha Bulker'' ran aground the 22 Filipino and Korean crew members aboard were successfully rescued by the Westpac Rescue helicopter service from the vessel, which grounded about from shore at the popular Nobbys Beach.〔;
〕 The ship was empty of cargo at the time, waiting to load 58,000 tonnes of coal from Newcastle Port. However, it contained around 700 tonnes of fuel oil, 38 tonnes of diesel and 40 tonnes of lube oil, which if released could have caused an ecological problem 〔
During further stormy weather, the ship was pushed onto the beach so that it was almost parallel to the beach, and both bow and stern were stuck on the sand. The whole ship was then completely trapped between the beach and a rocky reef. In the first week the salvage crew loaded the ship with ballast water, which sunk it lower, so that its hull was firmly on the seabed.
Its location on a popular beach and close proximity to the Newcastle CBD made ''Pasha Bulker'' a tourist destination and precipitated a minor economic boom. One radio station promoted a song called "Blame it on the Pasha Bulker", a rewrite of the song, "Blame it on the Bossa Nova". ''Pasha Bulker'' was even advertised on eBay for a short time, with bids reaching $16,000,000 before eBay closed the auction.〔;

While beached, ''Pasha Bulker'' was used as a billboard for slogans by Greenpeace on 27 June 2007. Lasers beamed messages such as "Coal causes climate change chaos" and "This is what climate change looks like" in red on the side of the ship. Greenpeace stated that the protest was motivated by unnamed "scientists tell() us that storm surges of the type that we saw earlier this month are something that we can expect more of as a result of climate change."
