    M/V Grey Shark; NY Harbor.
    NY Harbor.
    1. On March 17, 2015, the USCG Sector New York notified NOAA concerning a fire aboard the M/V Grey Shark, a Ro/Ro (roll on/roll off) carrying cars. Crew are attempting to control the fire. The vessel is currently under tow about 100 miles east of Pt. Pleasant, NJ heading back to NY. It has been reported the ship has a total of 55,000 gallons of several different oils onboard. The USCG has requested trajectory implications for each of two potential anchorages, to decide where best to send the ship when it arrives around 2200 this evening in case of any potential spill. The ship is not currently losing any oil.
    2. THREAT: OIL. COMMODITY: FUEL OIL. MAXIMUM POTENTIAL RELEASE: 55000 GALLONS.
    3. POSITION 40.020N 072.050W. NOAA INCIDENTNEWS 8892: https://incidentnews.noaa.gov/incident/8892

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.
