Trawler disabled in English Channel
The 'Thortevald' was disabled after its propeller became entangled in a net in the traffic separation scheme of the English Channel on July 20, 2026, and drifting between the northbound and southbound lanes. Unable to maneuver, the skipper called for assistance.The rescuers from the SNSM station in Goury were mobilised. As the diver from the Goury station was unavailable, a diver from the Urville-Nacqueville station came to assist the team. The lifeboat reached the trawler after 1,5 hours, and in 16 minutes, the diver managed to free the propeller, allowing the fishermen to resume the fishing activities.

Fire in engine room
In the morning of Jan 5, 2017, a fire broke out aboard the "Arvorig" on a slipway at the fishing port of Lorient. The fire started aboard the trawler being under repair at Piriou. Five workers were aboard the Bigouden trawler, when the fire broke out at the level of the fresh water tank in the engine room. Three workers were nearby and carried out welding work. They emptied a fire extinguisher before sealing off the room and contacting the emergency services. About 20 firefighters from the rescue centers in Lorient and Hennebont quickly gained control of the fire and kept it from spreading. The work on the yard could be resumed at 11 a.m. Report with video: http: //www.letelegramme.fr/morbihan/lorient/lorient-incendie-sur-un-chalutier-sur-le-slipway-05-01-2017-11352877.php#Dj2VAwP3eGEJROso.99
