Grounding on the Ijssel
On Jan 3, 2013, the "Gratias" loaded with 2300 tons corn and being enroute Germany-Zwolle, ran aground on a crib on the Ijssel at Brummen. Attempts to refloat the ship failed, and on Jan 4 the crane ship "Misti 2" was called to lighter a part of the cargo onto another ship. At 3.30 p.m. the "Gratias" could be refloated. Ships were allowed to pass the grounding site in one-way-traffic until the ship was removed.
