Fishing vessel towed to Ballastad
The lifeboat "Det Norske Veritas" actually stationed in Stamsund was notified by the "Hauge Junior" which had problems with the propulsion on Dec 26, 2014, and needed assistance offYttersia on a fishing ground called "Ribban". A gale blew from the southwest. The fishing vessel managed to get some power so they proceeded towards the approaching lifeboat which took the vessel in tow. The ship which was not manoeuvrable was taken to Ballstad. Norwegian report with photo: http://www.nordlys.no/%20__Det_er_ingen_god_f_lelse___miste_framdriften_langt_til_hav%3Cbr%3Es-5-34-58950.html
