Grounding at Lysaker Pier
On the morning of Jan 13, 2025, the "Baronessen", en route from Nesoddtangen ,ran aground at the Lysaker Pier in Oslo. There were no reports of injuries. The ship managed to refloat without assistance and then docked outside of the Lysaker pier, assisted by the 'Trygve Braarud'. The ship has suffered some damage, but was stable. There were just under 100 passengers on board, and all of them have safely disembarked as of 8.45 a.m. A blackout was probably the cause of the accident. Technicians and others were on their way to examine the ship on the afternoon, and it will eventually be transported to a shipyard for repairs. The shipping company Norled launched an investigation into the accident. A smaller reserve boat was inserted to cover the route Nesodden-Lysaker.
