Grounding off Teignmouth
The 'Scot Bay' , loaded with animal feed and with eight crew members on board, ran aground on the River Teign on April 10, 2025, just before 6 a.m. The vessel got stuck with a slight list to starboard side on the approach of Teignmouth in pos. 50° 33' N 003° 30' W, en route from IJmuiden to the port. The Teignmouth Harbour Commission was on site and was coordinating with partners to get the ship off again. With the tide on the way out at the time of the accident, the ship remained grounded until the high tide on 6 p.m. Other ships were asked to stay clear of the casualty during the salvage by the tug 'Teign C' (MMSI: 235082804). The ''Scot Bay' finally berthed in the port of Teignmouth on April 11 at 4 a.m. Reports with photos and video: https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cwy00m4wj0no https://www.middevonadvertiser.co.uk/news/ship-aground-off-teignmouth-782599 https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/teignmouth-harbour-ship-run-aground-35034102?utm_source=mynewsassistant.com&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=embedded_search_item_desktop https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=scRldYkTiwU&embeds_referring_euri=https%3A%2F%2Fshipwrecklog.com%2F&source_ve_path=MjM4NTE

Scot Isles listing in rough seas after cargo shifted
The "Scot Isles" after having left the port of Riga in the afternoon of Dec 23 bound for Rochester suffered strong list to starboard between Gotland and Latvia on a position 23 miles SE of Östergarn, Gotland. It radioed a mayday on Dec 24, 2012, at 8 a.m. Parts of the deck cargo of swan timber had shifted causing the list. A helicopter was sent from Visby and was on scene at 09.10 a.m. to evacuate the ship, if needed. The "Regina Baltica" proceeded to the ship and assisted in maintaining radio traffic, the lifeboat from Värnburg set off, but was meanwhile called back, and the merchant ship "Aila" also went on standby. The master decided that the crew should remain on board and the ship would proceed to Liepaja with own power as he estimated that the situation would not get worse, but did not dare to turn the ship around to Gotland in seas of 3-5 metres and winds of 15 m/s. The list remained stable at 15 degrees. The Swedish coastguard monitored the vessel with the surveillance plane KBV 502 on its way. The patrol boat "KBV 503" was heading towards the casualty as well as a rescue ship from Liepaja. The "Scot Isles" on Dec 24 at 11 a.m. was about 45 miles from Liepaja, and the Riga MRCC took over the on scene command. They worked on trying to get a berth in Liepaja in order to take the ship there. The "Scot Isle" finally docked in the port at 4.40 p.m. Swedish report with photo: http://www.kustbevakningen.se/sv/sakerhet-till-sjoss/nyhetsarkiv/fartyg-med-slagsida-ost-om-gotland/
