On the night of March 1, 2018, at approximately 11 p.m., the cargo vessel 'Hav Sand,' en route from Szczecin to Esbjerg, encountered an allision with the tail end of the Northern lock of the Kiel Canal in Kiel-Holtenau. As the vessel was maneuvering to enter the lock, it unexpectedly veered to starboard, potentially due to a sudden gust of wind or an erroneous steering adjustment. The impact caused the ship's bulwark to strike the lock wall, leading to deformation of two plates. Fortunately, after assessing the damage, the 'Hav Sand' was cleared to resume its journey at 12:30 a.m., with an estimated arrival in Esbjerg set for March 3.
