Irish Grounding

The 9400 dwt boxship Samskip Endeavour ran aground in Waterford Harbour, Ireland.  The Samskip had suffered a mechanical failure while entering the harbour and struck a sandbank.   The boxship was later refloated with the aid of the rising tide and a tug.   The Samskip Endeavour was sailing from Zeebrugge, Netherlands before the incident.   No reports of injury, damage or pollution being released.
