The 62 meter long fishing vessel Kapitan Gromtsev became disabled off Malangsgrunnen, Norway. The trawler had suffered engine failure and went adrift. Authorities dispatched the patrol boat Harstad to the scene.

The Harstad took the Kapitan Gromtsev under tow and headed towards Tromsø. Later, a tug from Tromsø took over the tow and proceeded to berth at Tromsø. No reports of injuries, damage or pollution released.
