Fredwood

The fishing vessel Fredwood BA338 sank in Maryport harbour, England. The vessel had arrived in harbour the day before and had unloaded its catch when the incoming tide swamped the vessel. Unable to control the flooding the Fredwood developed a list to port and partially sank. The RNLI assisted in rescuing the four crew on board while the Maryport fire brigade aided with a dewatering pump. No reports of injuries. Reports state the vessel’s hull may have been punctured which allowed the water ingress.
