On the morning of May 22, the 70 meter long, 450 dwt ro-ro passenger ferry Frigg Sydfyen (IMO: 8222824) ran around on the Baltic Sea at Bøjden, Denmark. The ferry had departed from Bøjden with 50 passengers when it blown off course by strong winds and grounded onto a sandbar near the pier.  The pilot boat attempted to pull the ferry free, but the vessel was firmly stuck. A tug was dispatched from Svendborg to refloat the Frigg Sydfyen.

Passengers remained on board for another 8 hours before they would be safely taken back ashore. No reports of injuries or pollution released.
