Sirius Research Vessel Runs Aground in Ostend

Nov 09, 2018 22:11

On the evening of November 9, 2018, at approximately 6:30 p.m., the research vessel 'Sirius' encountered trouble and became grounded at the Eastern breakwater in Ostend. Despite the precarious situation, which left the ship listing on its starboard side, the three crew members aboard were unharmed and chose to remain with the vessel. Two tugs, the 'Multratug 11' (IMO: 7232626) and the 'Zeehond' (IMO: 8843549), were dispatched to the scene, where they prepared to assist once the tide changed at around 11 p.m. By midnight, efforts to rescue the 'Sirius' were successful, and it was towed back into the port for safety. Notably, while the ship was capable of sailing under its own power, a towing connection was opted for precautionary measures. Upon arrival at the port, the 'Sirius' underwent inspections, revealing only superficial damage. The grounding coincided with an outgoing tide, ultimately leading to the unfortunate incident.
