Trawler saved crew of two of blazing trawler
On Feb 24, 2015, the "François Elie" saved the Crew of two of the f/v "Angélus du Mer" which had suffered an Explosion at 11.36 p.m. The crew was safe and the ship was being towed to the port of Saint-Vaast. The CROSS Jobourg was informed by the trawler that a fire had broken out after the explosion in the engine room, 17 nautical miles north of Port-en-Bessin. The two crew members were able to board a raft and were taken on board the "François Elie" which was nearby. The CROSS Jobourg immediately mobilized the patrol boat "Pluvier" of the French Navy, which already was in the Seine Bay and the SNSM boat "Amiral Tourville" from Barfleur. Also the emergency tug "Abeille Liberté" with two marine fire fighters from Cherbourg and Equipment was dispatched. Around 2 a.m. on Feb 25 the "Pluvier" arrived on the scene and started the fight against the fire, followed by the "Abeille Liberté". The firemen boarded the trawler, and at 8 a.m., the fire was under control. The ship was finally towed to Saint-Vaast-la-Hougue at 1.30 p.m. assisted by the local SNSM boat "Président Jules-Pinteaux".
