The Torvind was headed to Piraeus when it suffered multiple failures. The cargo vessel had suffered engine failure along with problems with its rudder.

The towline was transferred to the Waterlord and all the vessels proceeded towards Kristiansund.

On December 25, the tow was halted off Sunndalsøra where the Torvind dropped anchor. There were no reports of injuries, damage or pollution released.
