Lysblink Seaways
The 129 meter long cargo vessel Lysblink Seaways ran aground off Ardnamurchan Point, Scotland. The Lysblink Seaways was en route to Skogn from Belfast with paper waste when it ran into difficults and went aground on the rocky shoreline. No reports of injuries to the 9 crew on board. The crew remained on board and hoped the cargo vessel would refloat on the next high tide, but it remained aground. The Tobermory RNLI lifeboat arrived on scene and stood by while authorities requested an emergency tug to proceed to the scene. Owners of the Lysblink Seaways have contracted a commerical tug to refloat the vessel. Later reports stated some fuel leaked from the stranded vessel. A small sheen appeared around the stern of the Lysblink Seaways.
