   1. On Nov. 5, 2009, Coast Guard Sector Anchorage notified the NOAA Alaska SSC that the 75' FV Lisa Marie was in trouble roughly 15 nm N. of Unimak Island at 55° 17'Nm 164° 08'W. The winds were from the NW at 40 Knts, seas were 25 feet, and the vessel was running on only 3 cylinders and able to make only 3 knts headway. The vessel is hoping to make it to Unimak Pass and seek shelter on the S-SW side of the island. Although the amount of diesel on the vessel was unknown, the capacity of the vessel is 10K gallons. The CG requested that NOAA keep track of the weather. As of Friday evening, November 6, 2009, the FV Lisa Marie safely arrived at Dutch Harbor. No oil was released during this tense couple of days with an under performing vessel in very harsh weather.
   2. THREAT: OIL. COMMODITY: DIESEL . MAXIMUM POTENTIAL RELEASE: 0 GALLONS.
