On Oct 31 the MAIB published a report on the accident of the "Celtic Spirit" which had been dragging its anchor during heavy weather on March 1 and subsequently was in collision with the seismographic research vessel "Atlantic Explorer" and the cargo m/v "Celtic Warrior" on the River Humber. The watchkeeper did not immediately identify this and the "Celtic Spirit" subsequently collided with the two anchored ships. All three vessels sustained shell plate damage, but there were no injuries and no pollution. The report highlighted the importance of ensuring taking tidal and environmental conditions fully into account, when going to anchor and ensuring that the frequency and accuracy of position monitoring is commensurate with the conditions experienced.
