The fishing vessel Yakov Pavlov collided with the fishing vessel Komandor in the eastern section of the Sea of Okhotsk.   The Yakov Pavlov was undamaged, but the Komandor hull was holed and had water ingress.   The master of the Komador ballasted one side of the vessel.   This caused a 15 degree list and lifted the holed section of the hull above the waterline.   The Crew made temporary repairs while pumping the water out.   The Komador also sent a request to the salvage tug Spravediviy for assistance.   Both tug and fishing vessel are proceeding to Kamchatka.

CCGS assist Newfoundland Fishing Vessels

The fishing vessels Ocean Quell and Atlantic Rover required assistance from the Canada Coast Guard off the coast of Newfoundland.  The 11 meter long Atlantic Rover contacted the Coast Guard that the vessel was taking on water.   A search and rescue helicopter from Gander, Newfoundland reached the Atlantic Rover.    The helicopter lowered a pump to the three men on board.   The pump kept the water ingress in check until it could reach port under it’s own power.   The 50 foot long fishing vessel Ocean Quell reported that it had water ingress and needed assistance while off the coast near St. Anthony, Newfoundland.    The helicopter and the CCGS Henry Larsen was sent out.    The helicopter was able to lower multiple pumps along with 2 search and rescue technicians.   However, the pumps were not able to stop the water ingress and the Ocean Quell had to be abandoned.    All five crewmen were safely evacuated to the Henry Larsen.   No reports of injuries reported.
