Tug sank in Leimuiderbrug
In the morning of Jan 13, 2017, the "Zeetijger" sank in Leimuiderbrug. Multiple emergency services, including a dive team were called at 8:45 a.m. The tug was used to transport a barge with silos stored on the deck from Aalsmeer to Oude Wetering, and the convoy was underway from Amsterdam to Rotterdam, when the tug became victim of strong winds and foundered in a winter storm. The crew of three was able to save themselves onto the shore in time. The wheelhouse remained above water.
