Tug refloated grounded ferry
On Mar 15, 2015, the "Royal Engineer" refloated the ferry "Silver Lake" of the North Carolina Department of Transportation which had lost steering power and ran aground about a mile south of Ocracoke on Mar 14, after it drifted into shallow water and got stuck. A 47-ft-life boat crew from the Hatteras Inlet Coast Guard Station got the 14 passengers off the ferry. They were taken to the Ocracoke South Ferry Terminal. Mechanics and the crew remained on board the ferry to wait for the arrival of the tug, which took the ship back to Ocracoke. On Mar 16 she towed the "Silver Lake" to the state shipyard for repairs.
