The 22 meter long tug Christian 2 sank on the Maas River near Stevensweert, Netherlands. The Christian 2 was pushing a gravel barge when it began to list when it attempted to make a turn. The tug suffered water ingress and the vessel eventually sank.  No reports of injuries. Reports state the tug had released a small amount of oil pollution when it sank. Owners stated that salvage work on the tug was slated to begin in two weeks when water levels drop on the Maas.
