Propeller fouled by obstruction
The lifeboat "Gjert Wilhelmsen" was called to assist the "Loppøy" in the night of Feb 22, 2017. The express ferry had a fouled propeller due to an obstruction at 5.54 p.m. So the ship could only proceed with one engineRope or yarn remnants could be stuck in the propeller. The ship had sailed from Hammerfest to Hasvik where it berthed at 7.20 p.m. At 8.30 p.m. it berthed at Øksfjord, remaining there since.
