The 221-foot MV Commander successfully refloated and anchored in the vicinity of Protestant Cay Feb. 1, 2014, after the cargo ship grounded on Round Reef just outside Christiansted Harbor Jan. 31, 2014. The Coast Guard is investigating the cause of the grounding and an initial underwater assessment survey has identified two missing rudders, minor scraping and no major damage to the ship’s hull or any signs of pollution leaking from the vessel.
