On September 16, 2026, the ferry 'Kanalen', operating on the Thyborøn-Agger route, encountered a significant incident as it ran aground near Agger. Fortunately, all passengers and crew were unharmed during the episode. The stranded vessel remained stuck for several hours until the DSRS lifeboat 'Martha Lerche' was dispatched for assistance. The skilled crew managed to free the 'Kanalen' from the rocky seabed later that afternoon, enabling it to safely dock in Agger. Due to the situation, ferry services were temporarily halted for the remainder of the day, allowing divers to conduct a thorough inspection of the hull and ensure its integrity. However, normal operations resumed the following morning, September 17, at 6 a.m., returning to the scheduled timetable without further disruption.
