Taiwanese bulk carrier Ocean Victory suffered an engine failure in the evening
Dec 9 2012 off Zandvoort, north of Rotterdam, North sea, and started to drift
towards the shore in stormy weather conditions. Vessel managed to drop
anchor or anchors, but reportedly, got her propeller entangled in a buoy chain.
There is no immediate danger to the crew, all 20 crew decided to stay on
board. Three tugs are on the scene, at least one attempt to take bulk carrier
on tow already failed. It is planned to tow Ocean Victory to Ijmuiden. Vessel is
en route from Gibraltar to Ijmuiden.
