Almost a year ago a cargo ship that ran aground at Cranstal on the Isle of Man, has been removed from the Latvian Ship Registry and is now operating with a new name under the flag of Cyprus.

The former CEG Orbit is now called Leila.

A report into the beaching near Ramsey was prepared by the Isle of Man Ship Registry on behalf of its Latvian counterparts.

Details of the incident report have never been made public but the Board of the Marine Administration of Latvia told Manx Radio the vessel has been excluded from the country's register.

CEG Orbit ran aground on 27 August last year and was re-floated on the second attempt by two tugs.
