On August 24, 2015, the cargo vessel 'Kelly C' experienced a grounding incident in the Eo River near Ribadeo while attempting to maneuver out of its departure from the port of Lugo. The ship, which had arrived from Ceuta on August 23, struck an accumulation of sand that had amassed on the estuary's bottom. Fortunately, at 9:30 p.m. the same day, the 'Kelly C' was successfully freed from the shoal with the assistance of the tugboat 'Gondán'. The vessel was carrying a cargo of 2000 tons of pulp paper at the time. This incident impacted traffic in the approach to Lugo during the salvage operation.
