Brand om bord på skib i Atlanten

Der udbrød mandag morgen brand i skorstenen om bord på containerskibet Godafoss, mens det befandt sig 70 sømil vest for Færøerne, på vej fra Thorshavn til Reykjavik.

Skibet tilkaldte hjælp fra den færøske og islandske kystvagt. En islandsk redningshelikopter blev sendt til positionen sammen med kystvagtskibet Thor og et færøske kystvagtskib.

Før den tilkaldte hjælp nåede frem lykkedes det dog skibets 13 mand store besætning selv at slukke ilden.

Redningshelikopteren og kystvagtskibene returnerede derefter til deres baser. Godafoss ventes at ankomme til Reykjavik sent tirsdag eftermiddag, hvorefter skibet vil gennemgå en grundig undersøgelse.

Godafoss, der sejler for Eimskip, er indregistreret på Antigua & Barbuda.
