Supply ship Grampian Talisker was reported to have suffered an engine room fire on 9th. May 2019 when 20 miles east-southeast of Flamborough Head off the Yorkshire coast. The ship dropped anchor and the fire team of the crew of 14 investigated. Humber Coastguard sent the RNLI lifeboat from Bridlington for assistance. The vessel still had the use of one engine and proceeded to anchorage. The ship berthed at the Telford Dock in Aberdeen late on 12th. May. Investigations showed that there had not been a fire, but excessive smoke caused by a bearing overheating.
