The convoy was underway from Antwerp to Basel and intended to berth at the grain storage in Ludwigshafen at 9 a.m. for a crew exchange. While heading for the quay, the barges got stuck at starboard side. In the midday hours of Oct 13 a salvage attempt was carried out by the workboat "Speyer" (MMSI-No.: 211511260) and both barges refloated. The voyage to Basel was continued at 2 p.m. German reports with photos: http://www.mannheim24.de/mannheim/mannheim-fotos-guetermotorschiff-tonnen-duenger-rhein-festgefahren-6832472.html http://www.rheinpfalz.de/nachrichten/titelseite/artikel/niedriger-rheinwasserstand-frachtschiffe-fahren-sich-fest/
