Fire during welding work
In the port of Lauwersoog a fire broke out in the hold of the "Vrijheid - WL 18", 40 gt, on Jan 19, 2017, at 11.15 a.m. The fire started during welding works aboard the vessel which was under maintenance on the slip of a repair yard. Power lines inside the hold were smouldering, and the skipper alerted the fire brigade from Zoutkamp and the police. Three firemen went aboard and quickly extinguished the flames, thus could avoid the damage to get worse.
