Trawler started taking on water
The 'Hippocampe-CN.734507 ' started taking on water on Sep 13, 2026, off Port-en-Bessin. The SNSM deployed the lifeboat 'Notre-Dame-de-Grandcamp- SNS 266' from Grandcamp-Maisy (MMSI: 227011240), which was just preparing for its monthly drill, to assist. Within minutes, the lifeboat was alongside the trawler, and its crew immediately began pumping operations. After securing the vessel, the skipper asked the lifeboat to tow it to Port-en-Bessin for an emergency haul-out. Upon the arrival, teams of the Portducalvados were ready to take over and facilitate hauling the trawler ashore. After an operation, which lastied nearly four hours, the SNSM crew headed back to the base.
