Press release -

Lifeboats on tow

The 'Esvagt Dee' has towed two 65-man lifeboats from Kristiansund to Draugen, where the boats will replace the two lifeboats scheduled for planned servicing.

To tow the boats, one ESVAGT colleague had to be transferred to the 24 ton lifeboats and perform the hooking action while the boat was held in position by the 'Esvagt Dee' and a work boat.

The boats that were replaced were towed back to Kristiansund.
