Cygnus Vessel Reviews and Specifications

On the morning of February 10, the vessel 'Cygnus' successfully docked in St. John's, Newfoundland, after encountering a difficult situation at sea. The ship, which was approximately 260 nautical miles east of Newfoundland, began taking on water but was able to manage the crisis using its onboard pumps. Thankfully, all 21 crew members are reported safe and sound, with no injuries occurring during the incident. The prompt response by the crew helped secure the vessel's safe return to port.

On February 8, 2018, the fishing support vessel 'Cygnus' (IMO: 4316017) encountered a water leak while engaged in a patrol mission in the North Atlantic, approximately 260 miles east of St John's. The leak originated from the propeller shaft, prompting the crew to make the prudent decision to return to port. Fortunately, the situation was quickly brought under control, and the vessel was successfully dewatered. To ensure a safe journey back, the offshore supply ship 'Atlantic Kingfisher' was dispatched to escort the 'Cygnus' to St. John's, while the Canadian Coast Guard ship 'Sir Wilfred Grenfell' was also called upon to assist. All 21 crew members were reported safe, with the situation stabilized. The 'Cygnus' is set to arrive at St. John’s on February 9, having been located 120 miles east of the port at 2 a.m.
