Barge with 1400 tons steel wires stuck at Erfde
On Aug 23, 2015, at 3.30 p.m. the "Boekanier" ran aground at the conjunction of the IJssel and the Twente Canal near Eefde while trying to evase a pleasure boat. The canal had to be closed for ship traffic in both directions. The ship was loaded with 1400 tons steel wire. It could be refloated around 10.30 p.m. by the three tugs "Herman Gré", "En Avant III" and "Liberté", supported by its own engine.
