Tugboat Incident: Drifting Pontoon Rescued Near Spiekeroog

Jan 14, 2026 11:26

On January 4, 2026, the towline of the tugboat "Leopard" unexpectedly snapped while traveling from Emden to Gdansk, leaving a 60-meter-long pontoon drifting approximately 12 kilometers off the coast of Spiekeroog Island. In response to the emergency, the tug "Nordic" (IMO: 9525962) was dispatched from Cuxhaven to provide assistance. It was accompanied by the multi-purpose vessel "Mellum" (IMO: 8301981), deployed by the Waterways and Shipping Authority from Wilhelmshaven, to address the potential hazard the drifting pontoon posed to maritime traffic. The persistent efforts of the "Nordic" successfully secured the pontoon and maneuvered it northward until a commercial tug arrived to tow it safely to port. The tug "Leopard" made its way back and docked at Eemshaven on January 6, with the support of the "Mellum," which also facilitated repairs on the damaged towline. After a brief stay, the "Leopard" resumed its journey towards Gdansk, maintaining an estimated time of arrival of January 14.
