Three men were rescued from a sinking tug at Peterhead, UK, after their vessel capsized just outside the entrance to Peterhead Harbour on June 14.
The Dutch registered tug 'Ysselstroom' remained floating partly submerged for a short while but eventually sank in approximately 25 metres water depth.
The 19.5-metres tug had been assisting a barge approximately 500 metres off the entrance to the harbour when the accident happened.
The tug's crew were cold and wet but uninjured.
