On December 12, 2012, the cargo vessel 'Clipper Falcon' experienced a maritime mishap when it ran aground south of Fort Island, specifically on a stone dam adjacent to the lock system at IJmuiden. The ship, which was on its way from Sierra Leone to Amsterdam, reportedly suffered rudder failure prior to the grounding incident that unfolded around 4:45 p.m. The exact reasons behind the rudder malfunction remain unclear. Just an hour later, the salvage tugs 'Triton' and 'Thetis', operated by Iskes, successfully refloated the vessel. It was then towed to a nearby fishing harbor for a thorough damage inspection. The 'Clipper Falcon' resumed its journey towards Amsterdam at 5:15 p.m. and safely arrived at Kloosterboer by 5:45 p.m., with all 15 crew members reported to be unharmed. The ship opted for the southern port entrance at Fort Island, situated to the north of the cruise ship terminal, while other vessels accessing the North Sea were utilizing the northern entrance.
