Offshore supplier with 12 persons on board suffered water ingress off Borkum
On July 29, 2013, the "ASP Tyne" suffered water ingress while underway to the offshore windpark Borkum. The lifeboat "Alfried Krupp“ of the DGzRS-station Borkum was requested to assist by the Dutch MRCC at 10.30 a.m. The crew of the "ASP Tyne" was able to cope with the flooding with its own pumps, but the captain of the ship, which was carrying 12 persons at that time, immediately turned around and headed for the approaching lifeboat. After the ships rendezvoused, the "Alfried Krupp" escorted the supply boat until it reached the port of Eemshaven. Due to its reduced manoeverability the lifeboat took the "ASP Tyne" in tow off the port and safely moored it. At 3.20 p.m. the "Alfried Krupp" returned to its station.
