Reason leading to total loss: the roro cargo ship ZAHRA III experienced engine failure off Hanish Island, Yemen, and drifted towards Hanish Sughra, where she stranded on December 4, 2007.

Cheers,
Aleksi

Thanks Aleksi for this information. I've been searching for this information, but all I could find was "total loss" without any more details.
