A 16-person salvage team from Smit Salvage, owned by Dutch marine engineer Boskalis, was sent to the ship to help control the flames, Boskalis said. The Panama-flagged ship, owned by Snowscape Car Carriers SA and managed by Mitsui O.S.K. Lines Ltd (9104.T), was travelling from Emden, Germany – where Volkswagen (VOWG_p.DE) has a factory – to Davisville in the United States, based on the Maritime Traffic website. The 22 crew members on board were evacuated on Wednesday, when the fire broke out, with no one hurt, Portugal’s navy said in a statement. Around 1 100 Porsches and 189 Bentleys were on board. Audi, another Volkswagen brand, confirmed some of its vehicles were also on the ship but did not state how many. Volkswagen did not confirm the total number of cars on board and said it was awaiting further information.
