The 30 meter long two-masted schooner Angelina Catherina caught fire while off Kiel Holtenau, Germany. The fire started in the engine room, but was quickly contained from spreading to other parts of the ship by the crew. The crew activated the onboard automatic extinguishing system and requested assistance from the water police. The DGzRS lifeboat Berlin responded with members of the local fire brigade to the scene. Additional lifeboats and police patrol boats arrived on scene. The vessels berthed at quay in Kiel Holtenau and the fire was finally extinguished a short time later. No reports of injuries or pollution released.
