Descripción del sitio
The 24 July 2006, while she was near the Alaskan coasts (48 12.7N 174 12.5W) the COUGAR ACE suffered a problem with his ballast system (obviously) and the vessel suffered a listing of 85°. The strinken vessel was towed by TITAN, in charge of the salvage and towage operation. All the operations were under the survey the US COAST, as the Alaskan coast is a highly environmentally sensitive area. Finaly, the vessel was towed safely to Unalaska Island after more than two weeks of fear for a real disaster. For more information, see Fortunes de Mer, "majors cases".
