GROUNDING OFF KOLDING.
Rix Atlantic ran aground off Drejens in posistion 55° 29.61' N 009° 34.95' E at 5.25 a.m ON 7th. May 2019.
The ship was enroute from Klaipeda, Lithuania where it had sailed on 4th. May 4, to Kolding, Denmark, carrying a cargo of maize. It was thought that the captain read the chart incorrectly and turned too late, resulting in the ship sailing onto a sandbar. The Danish tug Valdemar was called from Fredericia on 8th. May and Rix Atlantic was refloated in the afternoon. After inspections of the hull, the ship was taken to the South Quay at Kolding where it moored at 7.40 p.m. on 8th. May. She sailed again at 3.50 p.m. on 10th. May bound to Frederiksad where she moored at the container terminal at 9.15 p.m. on 11th. May.
After leaving the Berendrecht lock, the "Voge Dignity" (IMO 9420851) is seen here passing the PSA Noordzee Terminal as the tanker sails downstream the river Scheldt and out to the anchorage in front of the Belgian coast to wait for orders.
Two days later, just before midnight on September 23rd 2021, the vessel headed back to Antwerp where it berthed at the Sea-Tank Terminal at the Kanaal dock B2.

The well loaded small general cargo ship CEG UNIVERSE operated by EMS Ship Management GMBH of Germany outbound from the Mersey at Crosby Bend passing near the wreck of the PEGU. Photographed from PS WAVERLEY.
The PEGU (8,183frt) was a passenger cargo ship built in 1921 at Dumbarton for P. Henderson & Co, Glasgow.
The wreck of the PEGU has been a familiar sight for decades. Until it was felled by the Alexandra Towing Company tug WALLASEY in 1987 the ship's mast was a promient seamark. The tug collided with the mast as a result of steering failure.
The PEGU went aground in heavy seas in November 1939 on the Crosby Channel revetment whilst on passage from Glasgow to Rangoon via Liverpool.
The 103 passengers on board were all taken off by the New Brighton lifeboat and transferred to the Pilot Boats.
Shortly after the passengers were rescued, an attempt was made to tow her; however, she was firmly aground, and there she remains to this day.
