Ship stuck in Leeuwarden as victim of power outage near Franeker
On Aug 25, 2025, at 2.30 p.m. a major power outage occurred in Leeuwarden and the surrounding area after a crane on a barge of Jongema Transport, pushed by the tug 'Maranatha' (MMSI: 244660562), allided with a high-voltage power line near Herbaijum. The 'Famke' was unloading sand in Leeuwarden when the power went out. The crane's clamp was in the hold at the time, so that the ship got stuck for two days. The 'Famke' left the port again on the evening of Aug 26, after power was restored and the clamp removed, being one of the first vessels to pass under the power lines near Franeker on the evening of Aug 26. It arrived in Harlingen on Aug 27. Report with photos: https://www.omropfryslan.nl/nl/nieuws/17737248/hoogspanningsmast-stabiel-kijken-hoe-groot-schade-is-schip-uit-harlingen-vaart-weer
