Royal Navy on tow

The ‘Esvagt Connector’ on tow duty for the Royal Navy’s coming flagship.

In the words of CEO, Søren Nørgaard Thomsen, ”it was an incredibly lucky Dutch skipper” that the crew from the ’”Esvagt Connector” rescued from the North Sea on 9 Sep 2015. The crew received thanks and tokens of appreciation in memory of the rescue.

“We were lucky – not heros!”

“We feel very humble about it. It was a fantastic team effort where everything came together – but it was also luck.”
