    1. The 50 foot F/V LONGSHOT caught fire near the entrance to Long Island Sound on Sunday morning March 20, 2016. The crew escaped without injury, but the vessel was full engulfed and burned to the waterline and then sank. The USCG Sector Long Island Sound contacted the NOAA SSC to determine potential fate of the fuel oil and resources at risk.
    2. THREAT: OIL. COMMODITY: DIESEL. MAXIMUM POTENTIAL RELEASE: 1100 GALLONS.
    3. POSITION 41.155N 071.954W. NOAA INCIDENTNEWS 9253: https://incidentnews.noaa.gov/incident/9253

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.
