Vos-Master

On Nov 14, 2016, at noon the "VOS Master" limped into Aberdeen on one engine. The Shore-side Engineering Superintendent arrived at the Pokra Quay and talked on his mobile phone to the crew when a crump was heard when his Audi car rolled forward and hit a bollard as he had forgotten to engage the handbrake, so besides a broken engine, also a broken car was to be mourned. The "VOS Master" remained in Telford Dock for the time being.

On Jan 1, 2015, the "Vos Master" responded to the call of a disabled fishing vessel and stood by until volunteers from Wick and Fraserburgh RNLI reached the site 35 miles offshore. The Wick RNLI all-weather lifeboat was launched at 8.40 a.m. to go to the assistance of the 26-metre Inverness registered fishing vessel which had suffered a breakdown approximately​​ 35 miles east of Wick. The vessel, which had been dead in the water for approximately 12 hours, had alerted its EPIRB distress signal as it had lost all power. TheRAF rescue helicopter 137 and the Wick lifeboat were tasked to respond by the Coastguard. The conditions included a southerly wind force five, good visibility and 1,5 meter sea. The Wick lifeboat arrived on scene at 10.45 a.m., a tow was established and the lifeboat began the long tow back to port. The Fraserburgh all-weather lifeboat was also launched around 11 a.m. and proceeded to sea to meet with the Wick lifeboat. After arriving on scene at around 1.30 p.m., the Fraserburgh lifeboat then took over the care of the vessel. Shortly after, power was successfully restored to the vessel and it was escorted into Fraserbough harbour by the lifeboat.
