Disabled tug towed into Port Angeles harbor
A disabled tug and its 320-foot barge is being towed into the Port Angeles Harbor tonight. The Coast Guard coordinated assistance for the tug Mauna Loa which suffered engine failure and began to drift towards the Washington coast on Tuesday. The 113-foot Mauna Loa along with its 320-foot barge were met by the crew of tug vessel Lauren Foss of Neah Bay, which is towing the disabled vessel to Port Angeles. It is expected to arrive at 11 p.m. tonight. Watchstanders at Coast Guard Sector Columbia River received the report from the master of the disabled tug and coordinated with the owner of the tug who contracted with the tugs Lauren Foss of Neah Bay and the David Brusco of Cathlamet to intercept the Mauna Loa before it could drift aground.
