East Frisian Vessel Stuck on Shore for Nearly a Day
Vessel Stuck on Dam for Lengthy Period - Vessel encounters predicament, remains immobile near the dam for extended hours.
Let's dive into this watershed event! A passenger ship, hailing from East Frisia, encountered a predicament off the coast of Wittmund that left it marooned for almost a day. The ship departed from Wittmund-Harlesiel harbor in the morning, only to experience a power outage mid-voyage that hindered the rudder system.
As if thrown by a tidal wave, the vessel washed ashore along a causeway, some 1,000 meters away. A passerby lent a helping hand, ferrying seven of the 15 passengers back to safety. The remaining eight passengers and three crew members found themselves in the same leaky boat, stuck onboard.
According to the water police, the stranded crew struggled to dislodge the ship due to the low tide, forcing them to wait until the next high tide before they could maneuver it back to port. By evening, the ship managed to return to the Wittmund-Harlesiel harbor, where an inspection for potential damages is scheduled for Friday. Until then, the ship won't be sailing.
