Fire off Dieppe
On Nov 8, 2026, at around 7 p.m. the 'Le Vicomté- FC.735033' (ex 'L'Avenir' 2025) caught fire at the entrance to the port of Dieppe. The trawler, belonging to the Dieppe-based fishing company Favrou, part of the Coq Marée fish processing group, was at the entrance to the port of Dieppe. Eight SNSM volunteers from the Ango district boarded the lifeboat 'Notre-Dame de Bonsecours' and went to the scene. The fire, which broke out between the control panel and the exhaust pipe, was brought under control on site.

Trawler grounded in Tréport
The 'L'Avenir', with four crew members on board, ran aground in the outer harbour of Le Tréport on Oct 15, 2025, shortly after 9 a.m., after getting caught by the falling tide, while heading to the port city to refuel with diesel. As it left the fishing port, the vessel got a little too far to starboard and heeled over to port side, before finally running aground. The harbour master's office was quickly mobilized to secure the area. It was too late to intervene directly, as; the tide was already too low to try to refloat the vessel. An Avurnav (Urgent Notice to Mariners) was issued on to warn all port users of the vessel's presence. The ship refloated at around 6 p.m. with the rising tide without assistance.
