The MTS Vengeance and her tows, the Steindamm and Rana are now closing in on their first stopover at Brixham and currently making 3.2 knots. However, there are two tugs about 15 miles southwest of the Vengeance both showing the 'not under command' status. I understand that this could signify a number of eventualities: either the vessel has encountered a mechanical or steering problem or that the vessel has the auto pilot engaged but no one is at the helm.
The two tugs are currently about 2 miles apart. The MTS Atlas is showing Lyme Bay as her destination but interestingly, the other tug the Herkules has Dakar as its destination.
Dawn may well clarify matters ...
