A service vessel went aground near the approach to the harbor at Kjerringvåg, Norway.  The vessel had run up onto a shoal near the harbor.  Reports state that conditions with minimal visibility while the harbor lantern had not been working at the time of the grounding.  The service vessel waited until the next high tide to avoid damaging its propeller.   No reports of injuries or pollution released.
