Grounding off Katwijk
On Mar 22, 2012, around 10 a.m., the "Breehorn" ran aground one kilometer north of Katwijk. The ship was fishing close to the coast, but got stuck on a sand bar one hour before low tide. The Coastguard Centre in Den Helder discussed alarmiing the KNRM, but this offer was rejected by the crew. They found the weather good enough to simply wait for the flood. About two hours before the water reached its peak, the ship refloated with own power. There was no damage to the shrimper.
