English: MV Captayannis The MV Captayannis was launched in 1946, and sank on 27 January 1974. It was a Greek sugar-carrying vessel which broke free from anchor during a storm off Greenock and collided with an oil tanker. The tanker's anchor chains holed the Captayannis and water began pouring in; the Captain elected to steer her onto a sandbank, and there she later turned onto her side. The Captayannis is an important roost site for birds on the estuary.
