Read Authentic Ratings for the Haroy

On November 10, 2016, a dramatic rescue operation unfolded off the coast of Dryna as the ferry "Harøy" sprang into action to assist the burning fishing vessel "M-27-H," registered in Brattvåg, located in the picturesque Harøy fjord. The situation escalated when the two-person crew aboard the fishing boat noticed smoke billowing from the vessel and promptly issued a mayday call via Florø radio at 11:37 a.m. In response to the emergency, the Joint Rescue Coordination Centre (JRCC) quickly alerted nearby vessels, including the ferry "Solskel," and several lifeboats, including "DNV II" and "Det Norske Veritas," along with the dedicated team from the sea rescue corps SKR Maersk. Both the "Harøy" and "Solskel" rushed to the scene, accompanied by other small crafts, to provide assistance. Thanks to their prompt actions, the crew was able to extinguish the fire by noon. The "Harøy" deployed a man overboard (MOB) boat for this crucial task, after which the "Solskel" returned to its regular route. At 1 p.m., the lifeboat "Det Norske Veritas" joined the firefighting efforts and search operations. Although an air ambulance and additional ground ambulance resources were prepared to assist, they were ultimately stood down as the situation stabilized. It’s important to note that ferry departures on the Brattvåg-Dryna-Harøy route faced delays due to the unfolding rescue operation.
