Coast Guard Responds to Tug Fire on Delaware River

Feb 20, 2025 11:55

On the morning of February 18, 2025, a fire erupted aboard the tug 'Thor' near Pea Patch Island on Pennsylvania's Delaware River. At approximately 9:30 AM, the Coast Guard Sector Delaware Bay received a distress call on Channel 16 from the vessel, which was navigating with a two-barge tow between Delaware City and Old New Castle. The fire occurred in the engine room, prompting the crew to secure all hatches while the tug experienced a loss of steering. Fortunately, four crew members were evacuated successfully by nearby Good Samaritans. Responding swiftly, boat crews from USCG Station Philadelphia, along with a helicopter from Air Station Atlantic City, rallied to the scene. Local partner agencies, including the fireboat from Wilmington Fire Department, also provided assistance. In light of the emergency, Sector Delaware Bay watchstanders issued an Urgent Marine Information Broadcast to inform passing mariners. The fire was ultimately extinguished, and the tug 'Thor' was secured and towed by the tug 'Wye River' (IMO: 9512379). An investigation into the cause of the blaze is currently underway.
