Sveabulk
The 72 meter long, 1465 dwt bulk freighter Sveabulk ran up on the rocks at Brottøy, Norway. The Sveabulk suffered a small hole in the forepeak along with four meter long dent along the keel. No reports of injuries. The crew moved the vessel’s excavator from the forepeak to the aft to help free itself from the rocks. A tug was on scene and assisted in refloating the Sveabulk. The Sveabulk was travelling in ballast from Stokmarknes en route to Blokken where a cargo of gravel awaited. The Sveabulk proceeded to Harstad for repairs.
