It said the 126m (43ft) long ship was “anchored in a safe location” off the Isle of Wight.<\/p>\n
Ship tracking websites show the vessel in the English Channel about four nautical miles from the coast of the Isle of Wight.<\/p>\n
The Caesarea Trader – previously named Commodore Goodwill – was reflagged under the UK flag last year and transports freight between the Channel Islands and Portsmouth.<\/p>\n
It is has a cargo capacity of 1,250 cubic metres, the equivalent of about 80 trailers.<\/p>\n
DFDS said it was “making necessary steps to maintain continuity of freight links to Jersey”.<\/p>\n
The ferry served the Channel Islands for nearly 30 years before it was bought by the Danish-based company in 2025.<\/p>\n
