Report: Grounding a result of safety management deficiencies

Fri Apr 30 12:24:11 CEST 2021 Timsen

An investigation report on the grounding of the 'Deer Island Princess II' near Letete on Feb 2, 2018, has been published. The ship with four people on board was transiting from Butler Point, Deer Island, to Letete, when it ran aground. One of two Z-drive thruster units detached from the vessel. The crew aborted the voyage and returned to Butler Point using the remaining thruster, when the vessel made bottom contact a second time, detaching the remaining thruster. With no propulsion, the vessel was anchored and towed to Letete the following day. There were no injuries as a result of the occurrence. There was minor pollution. The investigation found that a combination of the lower-than-predicted tide level, local topography and a persistent northwesterly wind resulted in a water level that was significantly lower than tide table predictions in the area. As a result, there was not enough water along the route to accommodate the vessel’s draft. Also, the master was not aware of the actual height of the tide, and had no means of determining water depth since the vessel was not equipped with a depth sounder and the tide boards at Butler Point Wharf and Letete were in disrepair and unusable. The investigation identified several safety risks, such as grounding or striking bottom during low tides, for which no risk mitigation measures were taken by the operator as part of its SMS. Additionally, the 'Deer Island Princess II' and 'John E. Rigby', both operated by Coastal Transport Limited, have been involved in four grounding or bottom contact occurrences since the current SMS was put in place by the operator in 2012.

Ferry towed to L'Etete after bottom contact

Thu Mar 08 10:32:30 CET 2018 Timsen

The "Deer Island Princess II" with four people on board, had bottom contact 0.13 nautical miles north northwest of Parker Island, New Brunswick, while transiting to L'Etete, New Brunswick, in position 45 02 11N, 66 55 06.8W, on Feb 2, 2018, at 7.09 hp.m. One of the 2 z-drive thruster units was broken away from the vessel as a result of the incident. The vessel aborted its voyage and proceeded back toward Deer Island, New Brunswick, using the remaining thruster. The following day it was towed by a tug to L'Etete. There were no injuries and minor pollution reported.
