Ferry repaired due to engine trouble
The "Noord Nederland", 361 gt (IMO: 9269611), encountered problems with the engines and had to be taken out of the Harlingen-Terschelling service and pulled on a slip in Harlingen on Aug 14, 2017. Technicians started to repair two engines on Aug 16, which was enough to get the ship sailing on Aug 17. From Aug 19 to 21, the third engine was repaired. The fourth engine must be completely replaced by another one manufactured in Germany. Freight for Vlieland and Terschelling was transported with another ship during the repair.
