Ocean Kinetics assisted in recovery of grounded fishing vessel
The 'Harvester' was involved in salvaging the grounded fishing vessel 'Firecrest-TT 46' (MMSI 235069734) from Bain’s Beach in Lerwick on July 22, 2026. The Ocean Kinetics marine department was drafted into assisting, with a dive team and two workboats involved. The 'Firecrest' was successfully recovered. The alarm was raised, after the 'Firecrest' ran aground at 3.20 a.m. The Coastguard, the police and the Lerwick lifeboat attended at Bain’s beach. The Lerwick Port Authority was informed. The skipper was unharmed in the incident, but the vessel was taking on significant water. A minor fuel leak was identified, and booms were deployed to contain any oil, while harbour staff and emergency services continued to monitor the situation. Working at low tide, the Ocean Kinetics team sealed the damage to the hull, pumped out the flooded compartments and refloated the vessel before lifting it ashore for repairs. The operation was completed within eight hours of the initial call, allowing Bain’s Beach to reopen to the public. There was no pollution from the incident.
