Medevac off Cap-à-l'Aigle
The Cap-à-l'Aigle Coast Guard ended its operational season on Oct 14, 2024, with the evacuation of a passenger from the 'Zuiderdam' at the request of the Canadian Coast Guard. Rescue boats of the cruise ship carried out the transfer. Three members of the unit were deployed in 15 minutes. Docking at the ship’s platform was very challenging due to the currents and waves created by the cruise ship. Once the passenger was on board,, the SAR boat 'auxiliary 1276' returned to the port to allow paramedics to take over.

Activists failed to blockade cruise ship
Dozens of climate activists campaigned at the 'Zuiderdam' in the center of Rotterdam on June 11, 2023, which was moored at the Cruise Terminal next to the Erasmus Bridge. Activists affiliated with Extinction Rebellion and the academic branch of that protest movement, Scientist Rebellion, climbed onto bamboo constructions on the quay. By blocking the mooring posts, they wanted to prevent the mooring lines from being disconnected. They tried to prevent the departure of the 'Zuiderdam', but they did not succeed. The vessel departed with some delay at the beginning of the evening.
