He also reported that the F/V Isabelle was discharging diesel into the harbor as the result of a fuel line failure which was spilling diesel into the bilge and being pumped overboard before being secured. Storm Chasers, a local OSRO, was hired to clean up the spill. The release estimates are 250 to 1000 gallons of diesel. Several folks from Sector Anchorage dispatched to Seward to attend to the spill. Sector Anchorage requested verbal trajectory, weather, tidal state, and ADIOS weathering curve.

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.
