The ship departed after undergoing repairs, which started back in June. Alongside the departure comes a $100 million lawsuit by the U.S. Department of Justice.

The DOJ alleges that the ship’s owners and operator were aware of the ship’s major issues before the accident that took the lives of six construction workers.
The ship was scheduled to head to China starting on Sept. 17, but delays forced it to leave port on Sept. 19.
