Fising vessel distressed off La Hève
The 'Bel Espoir-CH.667404', 55,80 gt (IMO.8543034), suffered water ingress off La Hève (Seine-Maritime) on Sep 7, 2021. The CROSS Jobourg was notified about the leak in the engine compartment about 37 kilometers northwest of Cap de la Hève. A diver was hoisted on board by a Caiman SAR helicopter of the French Navy with a pump, and the CROSS broadcast a Mayday relay. Another nearby fishing vessel, the 'Atlas', diverted to the ship too. The SNSM boat 'Pierre Huby' from Le Havre was also tasked to assist. The situation could be brought under control, and the 'Bel Espoir' was escorted to Port-en-Bessin by the lifeboat.
