The 65 meter long, 1260 dwt cargo vessel CEG Universe ran aground on Kyle Rhea near Glenelg, Scotland. The CEG Universe was loaded with a cargo of salt bound for Gairloch when it suffered rudder failure and struck bottom.  The vessel requested assistance with RNLI lifeboats from Kyle of Lochalsh and Mallaig responding. Both lifeboats aided in keeping the CEG Universe in position until a tugboat from Kyle arrived. The tug and lifeboats towed the CEG Universe to the harbour in Kyle. No reports of injuries or pollution released.
