Tug lost barge off Rügen
The barge "Smitbarge 8", 2922 gt (IMO: 9492555), broke lose from the tug "Aaron" off the Bug peninsula NW of Rügen island in stormy western winds during the attempt to pull it to sheltered waters. It ran aground off Dranske on Nov 8, 2015. The pontoon which had been used for works off Hiddensee and was loaded with machines and containers, could be refloated in the night to Nov 9 by three tugs and was towed into the ferry port of Mukran for surveys.
