Towage to Hvide Sande successfull completed

On April 5 at 2 p.m. the 'Egesund' finally arrived in Hvide Sande with the 'Nesejenta' in tow. The ships had left Hirtshals on April 4 at 4.15 p.m. for the final leg of the voyage which had abruptly interrupted five miles off Hanstholm when the yarn boat capsized for yet unexplained reasons. During the recent days the 'Nesejenta' was prepared for a successful transit to the Hvide Sande Shipyard to the relief of the shipowner Niels Henriksen, who explained that nothing had changed in the towing procedure. Now the yard will be preparing the semi-finished ship for delivery to the Norwegian buyer August Fjeldskår from Båly. At 10.20 p.m. the tug left the port again, bound to Hals with an ETA as of April 6, 8 p.m. Danish report with photo: https://fiskerforum.dk/denne-gang-lykkedes-det-at-faa-norske-nesejenta-til-hvide-sande/
