Drifting Container Successfully Marked Off Ile d'Yeu
On February 24, 2014, the Atlantic maritime prefecture successfully marked a wayward container located eight miles off the coast of Ile d'Yeu. This container, along with 14 others, was lost overboard from the cargo vessel 'Discovery Bay' on February 8 while it was navigating from Santa Marta to Flushing. The 'Discovery Bay' docked at Flushing on February 10. In response to the incident, a Dauphin helicopter equipped with a CEPPOL team was dispatched from the Naval Air Station Lann Bihoué, operating out of La Rochelle. The magnetic marker was deployed at 3:00 p.m. ET, enabling real-time tracking of the drifting container. Efforts to recover the container will proceed once weather conditions improve. After a brief stop in Dover from February 13 to 14, the 'Discovery Bay' continued its journey, remaining at Waal Port Rotterdam from February 14 to 18 before setting sail towards Willemstad.
