Disabled cargo ship on tow in the English Channel

General cargo ship LADY AMALIA (Flag – Netherlands [NL]) suffered engine failure in English Channel south of Weymouth UK. The ship was en route from Belfast to Erith.

The crew failed to fix problem by own means. That’s why, it was decided to tow it to Cherbourg France. French SAR tug ABEILLE LIBERTE took LADY AMALIA on tow at around.
