F/V JESSICA B; Kashega Bay, Unalaska Island, Alaska. Kashega Bay, Unalaska Island, Alaska. 1. On January 2, 1991, heavy weather in the Aleutian Islands drove the fishing vessel JESSICA B aground at Kashega Bay on Unalaska Island, Alaska with approximately 1,200 gallons of diesel and 200 to 300 gallons of lube and hydraulic oils onboard. The fuel tanks remained intact but a light sheen formed around the vessel that was thought to be residue from the engine room. A barge and an accompanying vessel were sent to the scene to pump off the petroleum products. USCG district 17. 2. COMMODITY: DIESEL, LUBE OIL, HYDRAULIC OIL. MAXIMUM POTENTIAL RELEASE: 1500 GALLONS. 3. POSITION 53.724N 166.875W. NOAA INCIDENTNEWS 6783: https://incidentnews.noaa.gov/incident/6783
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.
