Havelland
Around noon on January 20, the 111 meter long, 6052 dwt cargo vessel Havelland (IMO: 9499735) went aground on the Kiel Canal near Rade, Germany. The Havelland had departed from Sundsvall and was headed for Kingston-upon-Hull when it suffered engine failure on the canal. Without power the cargo vessel ran aground on the southern bank of the canal. The Havelland was able to restart its main engine restoring power and refloating itself. Authorities dispatched the 28.5 meter long tug Parat (IMO: 812812) to assist and escort the cargo vessel to Rendsburg where it will undergo inspection for damage. No reports of injuries or pollution released.
