Title: Anyone in Teignmouth? Juergen K just run aground!
Post by: justboatonic on October 23, 2018, 08:02:25 pm
Been watching the coasters come into Teignmouth Harbour via the Salty Cottage cam and was expecting to see the Juergen K come in assisted by Syd Hook pilot.
But she didnt appear as expected so looked up MarinenetTraffic,com and it appears she has run aground on the tight turn into the harbour. https://www.marinetraffic.com/en/ais/home/centerx:-3.497/centery:50.541/zoom:17 (https://www.marinetraffic.com/en/ais/home/centerx:-3.497/centery:50.541/zoom:17)

Unfortunately the web cam doesnt pan around so shes out of shot. Looks like Teign C went to assist but she didnt have enough power to pull her out and high tide was 90 minutes ago at 6.30.

Looks like she might be stuck there until 7 in the morning before they could pull her off.

Goodness me, looks like they might have got her off looking at Marinetraffic!

Guess there'll be some extra paperwork to write up tonight.
