The 82 meter long, 3200 dwt freighter Phantom became disabled while off Öland, Sweden.  The Phantom loaded with lumber bound for Casablanca suffered a cargo shift resulting in a severe list.  Part of the deck cargo broke loose and fell overboard.   The crew of six on board contacted the Swedish Coast Guard who dispatched vessels and a helicopter to the scene.   The helicopter first arrived and winched the crew to safety.  Later a Coast Guard vessel was able to attach a line and took the Phantom under tow.   The vessels were reported to be heading to Oskarshamn.   Reports state there is a risk that the Phantom may capsize before reaching safety due to heavy seas in the area.   Environmental vessels are also standing by in case pollution is released.
