Stromausfall auf Fähre "Funny Girl" führt zu stundenlanger Rettungsaktion
ZitatOn the evening of Sunday, October 6, 2024, the passengers of the ferry "Funny Girl" experienced a journey that turned out differently than expected. The ship was on its way from Helgoland to Büsum and was scheduled to arrive at its port of destination at around 19:30. However, a technical incident occurred around 30 minutes after casting off: a power failure rendered the ship unable to maneuver. According to a spokesperson for the Elbe-North Sea Waterways and Shipping Authority (WSA), such a power failure is not unusual and can usually be rectified using the ship's own resources. Unfortunately, this was not possible in this case.
