A hole in the #3 tank resulted in a two and one-half mile sheen to the northeast. USCG Cutter Mustang arrived on scene shortly thereafter and helped dewater the vessel. A total of 14,000 gallons of diesel were pumped from the Francis Lee into a barge before the vessel was light enough to be pulled off the reef. The vessel was declared a total lose. The original plan was for the Mustang to tow Francis Lee beyond the three-mile limit and scuttle it; however, shortly after being pulled from the reef on July 25 the vessel capsized and was scuttled in 50 fathoms of water between Two-headed Island and the island of Kodiak.

Not for navigation. The name is read automatically from official navigational warnings; a common name can belong to more than one ship, and a message may describe work the vessel is doing (cable, survey) rather than something that happened to it. Mariners must use official NAVAREA broadcasts and their national MSI service.
