The maritime scene in the Bristol Channel turned tense on January 24, 2025, when the vessel 'BG Jade' found itself in a precarious situation due to adverse weather conditions. As strong winds battered the region, the ship's anchor began to drag, prompting the crew to start the engines in a bid to regain control. The ship was in danger of drifting towards the nearby ferry, 'Stena Hibernia'. Quick action was essential to ensure the safety of both vessels amidst the storm.
