Water ingress in engine room
On May 5, 2019, around 9 a.m. the "Froschkönig" (EU-No.: 7200026) suffered water ingress on the Rhine enroute from Kaiseraugst to Basel leck. It managed to berth at the ferry pt. Schweizerhalle. There was only a crew of three on board. The fire brigade from Basel attended with some forces, including the fire boat from Basel. It was found out that water leaked into the engine room at the propeller shaft. The water was pumped out and properly disposed of. Then the fire boat towed the ship to a berth at the Birs Terminal AG in Basel for surveys.
