You have to be a bit more specific. I live in the area but have no clue what you are referring to....

Ciao,
Robert.

hello , there was a man over board on the bulk australia

this was een post on the dutch news ( in dutch )

Tevergeefse zoektocht naar drenkeling
14-09-2012  |  19:58



Reddingswerkers hebben vrijdagmiddag tevergeefs gezocht naar een drenkeling in de monding van de Nieuwe Waterweg.

Het slachtoffer was een opvarende van het vrachtschip Bulk Australia dat net bij Hoek van Holland de Maasmond uitvoer. Ooggetuigen hebben de man nog zwemmend gezien. Maar toen schepen van het Havenbedrijf in de buurt kwamen, was er niemand meer te zien.

Zeker elf schepen van onder meer de kustwacht, de KNRM, het Havenbedrijf en de zeehavenpolitie hebben naar de drenkeling gezocht. Ook hebben twee helikopters van de kustwacht en de loodsdienst naar de man uitgekeken.

Er is alleen een zwemvest gevonden, dat vermoedelijk van de drenkeling is. De kustwacht gaat er vanuit dat de man niet meer in leven is. Tijdens de zoektocht is het scheepvaartverkeer ter plaatse stilgelegd.

mvg ,

Some of our shipspotters have eyewitnessed the whole event. They are quiet upset.
