Reviews & Ratings for the Nordic

Enroute from Cuxhaven to Eemshaven the 23-m-f/v "Vertrauen - SK 42" slammed into the "Nordic" which was at anchor off Norderney in the evening of Apr 30, 2015. Both ships suffered significant damage. The f/v proceeded to Emden escorted by a customs boat with police officers on board. The 50 year old master had to pay a safety deposit of 1000,- €. The "Nordic" was meanwhile back on its position 2-3 miles off the Island.

The "Nordic" needs a longer repair to its towing system. The emergency tug "Baltic"was sent from Rostock as a replacement, and the "Bugsier 9“ sailed from Wilhelmshaven to Rostock to take the position of the „Baltic“ instead.

After the "Nordic" was released from the disabled tanker "Silver Carla" off the Frisian coast on Jan 13 at 1 a.m., the emergency towing connection was detached and another tug connected safely. During this manoever it was remarked that the towing winch of the "Nordic" had suffered a technical damage. To investigate the cause and the amount of damage the tug proceeded to Cuxhaven where she berthed at 6.30 a.m.
