Longliner on the rocks
In the evening of Sep 29, 2015, at 6.30 p.m. the "Azurit" ran aground on a rock off Båtsfjord. The lifeboat "Reidar von Kos" was close by and was immediately dispatched to assist the longliner, and supported by the full moon, storm surges and an extra high tide it got the ship off the reef at the first attempt. The ship was safely towed into dock amd left the port of Båtsfjord again on Oct 1 at 11.45 a.m. bound for the Norwegian Sea.
