Tradewind Voyages’ ship Golden Horizon has finally been able to leave Dover on Friday (16 July) afternoon after being "arrested" at the port.

Tradewind is currently involved in a dispute with former staff over unpaid salary

The ship had been “arrested” at the Kent port on Thursday (15 July) under the instruction of Star Clippers as part of a dispute between Star Clippers and the Croatian shipyard Brodosplit.

But the situation has now been resolved and Golden Horizon was due to depart on its Long Weekend cruise on Friday afternoon.

Maddie Taylor, Tradewind Voyages’ marketing manager, told TTG that Golden Horizon had been given the go-ahead to leave Dover at around 2pm.
