On the afternoon of September 23, the 106 meter long self-propelled barge River Drone 2 (MMSI: 205563290) ran aground on the Waal near Tiel, Netherlands.  The River Drone 2 departed from IJmuiden bound for Antwerp when it ran aground on a sandbank near where the Waal meets the Amsterdam-Rhine Canal.  The barge was firmly stuck on the sandbank blocking traffic on the waterway. No reports of injuries.

Initial attempts to pull the free were unsuccessful.  The following day the self-propelled barge River Drone 3 (IMO: 9973561) arrived on site and some of the cargo was lightered off.

On the early morning of September 20, the fishing vessel Ray Primero sprung a leak 10 nautical miles off A Coruña, Spain. The Ray Primero sent out a distress call stating the vessel had uncontrolled flooding and the crew were abandoning ship into a life raft.

The helicopter found the life raft and hoisted all 11 crew to safety.  No reports of injuries.

When the search and rescue vessels arrived, they found the Ray Primero still afloat.  Authorities started dewatering efforts while the 22 meter long search and rescue vessel Salvamar Betelgeuse (MMSI: 225986508) and the 40 meter long tugboat María de Maeztu (IMO: 9429091) connected a towing line.  The vessels took the fishing vessel under tow and proceed to A Coruña.
