The vessel is carrying 1500 gallons of diesel and was reported pushed aground. The upper portion of this bay is dominated by sensitive marsh habitat. The NOAA Scientific Support Coordinator has contacted the Emergency Response Division’s Home Team for trajectory support.

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.
