Complete Maritime Profile & Reviews of Maris-Stella-4

On November 14, 2023, at 06:40 a.m., an emergency unfolded north of Bodø when the cargo vessel 'Sunnmøre' experienced a catastrophic engine failure. The distress signal prompted a swift response from the Norwegian lifeboat 'Stormbull - RS 146,' stationed in Bodø. At the time of the incident, the 'Sunnmøre' was in a precarious position, drifting perilously close to a steep rock formation, approximately 800 meters offshore and south of Løpsholmen. The 'Stormbull' arrived on the scene just ten minutes following the alert, displaying an impressive 5.2-ton bollard pull to secure the vessel. The lifeboat successfully towed the 'Sunnmøre' back to safety over a period of four hours. After repairs were completed, the 'Sunnmøre' resumed its journey on November 16, departing from Bodø at 9 p.m. with its sights set on Narvik, expected to arrive by November 17.
