The 72 meter long, 1964 dwt tanker Yara Gas II suffered a fire in the Gulf of Finland near Helsinki, Finland.   The Yara Gas II was headed to Porvoo in ballast when a fire broke out in the engine room.   The crew quickly responded and was able to extinguish the blaze. The Coast Guard dispatched a patrol boat and rescue helicopter to the scene. Reports state the vessel had drifted into Estonian waters and has dropped anchor.   No reports of injuries or pollution released.
