Machine-translated summary — verify against original

On May 13, 2024, the passenger vessel 'Mitsushima' operated by Zamami Village, Okinawa Prefecture, was navigating near Abaren Port with 5 passengers onboard when it ran aground on a reef and became inoperable. There were no injuries. On May 17 and July 17, 2024, the Okinawa General Bureau's maritime operations supervisor conducted audits under the Marine Transportation Act, confirming that the vessel was not crewed with the necessary number of crew members as required by the Ship Crew Law to ensure safe navigation. On August 27, 2024, the bureau issued an order to the operator, stating that the transportation manager must, based on Article 23 of the safety management regulations, consider safety in crew deployment planning and operate with the legally mandated crew members.
