The 52 meter long self-propelled barge Amistade went aground on the Westerscheldt near the outer harbour at Terneuzen, Netherlands.   The Amistade had veered off course and struck the western slope near the pier.   A salvage tug was able to refloat the Amistade later the same day.  No reports of injuries, damage or pollution released.  The Amistade was loaded with sand bound for Antwerp.
