Frisia VII

Frisia VII

The 53 meter long, 321 dwt ro-ro ferry Frisia VII went aground near Juist, Germany.  The vessel had driven off course by strong winds and became stuck in the surrounding marsh.  A lifeboat from the DGzRS arrived on scene, but was unable to pull the Frisia VII free. Later at high tide, the lifeboat was able to pull the ferry free.   The vessels proceeded to Juist.   No reports of injuries, damage or pollution released.
