On July 18, 2017, at 1.20 p.m. the "Heinrich Schepers" suffered engine damage during the transit of the Kiel Canal from Hamburg to Kotka at canal km 28 short before the Grünental Bridge. The ship veered off course and ran into the embankment on the Northern canal side.

The canal was barred for shipping in the Dükerswisch/Fischerhütte area. At 2.15 p.m. the crew managed to get the engine running again, and the "Heinrich Schepers" was able to pull herself out of the embankment and proceed Eastward towards Fischerhütte where the vessel waited for the arrival of the police.
