Barentshav Aground

Barentshav Aground

The 92 meter long Norwegian Coast Guard vessel Barentshav went aground in the Andfjord while inspecting navigation lights.  The Barentshav was requested to check on a report of a strange light off Andenes and was proceeding back to port when it went aground.  Other Coast Guard vessels were onsite and pulled the Barentshav free a few hours later.  The Barentshav was then towed to safe waters where divers inspected the hull for damage.  No reports of injuries or pollution being released.
