The 41 meter long fishing vessel Nessie ran aground off Norrsundet, Sweden. The vessel was proceeding on autopilot when it veered off course and ran aground.  No reports of injuries, damage or pollution released. The crew requested assistance with two fishing vessels arriving on scene. The 240 tons of fish on the Nessie was transferred over to the other fishing vessel. The Swedish Coastguard dispatched  a vessel to monitor the situation.
