The wooden catamaran ferry left Nonouti on a two-day journey to South Tarawa, but capsized and sunk en route (exact date still unknown). Seven people were rescued on 22 January, as search and rescue efforts continued.[18][19] The aerial search for the vessel and possible survivors was eventually called off on 1 February, with 81 people still missing and presumed lost.[20]
The cargo ship was beached near Feodosia, Russia. Her crew were rescued. She had previously suffered a hull breach in the River Don, Russia.[29]Berg was consequently declared a total loss.[30]

The Saint Lawrence Seaway remained open for traffic.[68] The ship was pulled free on 4 June having struck an old lock system that had been submerged during the creation of the Saint Lawrence Seaway.
