Rescue operation for cutter off Grenen
On March 6, 2024, at 7.30 a.m., the 'Bouet-FN 537' suffered a leak north of Grenen, and the ship's own pumps were not sufficient to cope with the flooding in the engine room, which made the situation challenging. Waves reached heights of up to 3-4 metres. Both lifeboats from the rescue station Skagen headed towards the shp. When the 'FRB 08' arrived, a pump and two rescuers were immediately transferred onto the cutter. The pump was quickly installed, but the rescuers wanted an extra pump, which was retrieved from the lifeboat 'Lars Kruse' and brought to the cutter. Fortunately, the waves had subsided a bit, making it easier to maneuver the pumps between the ships. The skipper of the 'Bouen' had already tried to contact the shipyards in Skagen and Strandby, but they were unfortunately unable to receive the ship. Therefore, the decision was made to sail towards Læsø. It was agreed that the two rescuers on board the cutter should remain there, while the 'Lars Kruse' followed them to Læsø. The 'Bouet' reached the port of Østerby at 12.30 p.m. Report with photo: https://www.skagensavis.dk/2024/03/06/redningsaktion-fuldfoert.html
