Vega Sagittarius

At high tide on the 16th of August the general cargo vessel 'Vega Sagittarius' ran aground close to Nuuk, Greenland. The vessel breached all her double bottoms and came to rest with a 6° list on multiple rock pinnacles. Her stern was in deep water but her bow protruded from the sea during low tide and well above the low water mark during high tide. As a result of the tides, the vessel would be pounded on the rocks during high tide when the stern became buoyant. Due to the severity of the damage and instability caused by its position on the rocks, the vessel was partially evacuated.
