The 108 foot long, 171 ton fishing vessel Osprey went aground near Ten Pound Island, Massachusetts.   The herring trawler had just departed from Gloucester when it struck bottom and damaged one of the vessel’s fuel tanks.   Some 150 gallons of fuel oil was released into the water.   The Osprey was able to return back to Gloucester under its own power.   Authorities placed a containment boom around the Osprey while removing the remaining fuel.
