Snoekgracht damaged in collision in Kiel Canal
On Aug 29, 2012, at 06:45 a.m. the Dutch cargo m/v "BBS Star" was in collision with the "Snoekgracht" in the Kiel Canal at the pilot station Rüsterbergen after having suffered rudder damage short after having departed from the port of Rendsbrg by yet unknown reasons. The ship came off course and ran into the eastbound "Snoekgracht" which was suffered damage at the bulwark. After an investigation in the lock Kiel-Holtenau, the "Snoekgracht" was allowed to continue its voyage from Bremen to St. Petersburg. The hull of the "BBS Star", however, was damaged on a length of 50 metres on port side. The ship suffered water ingress and had to interrupt its voyage to Avonmouth after having reached Brunsbüttel where the cargo of grain was to be unloaded for thorough surveys.
