The ship is moored in a working harbor in a nature reserve. That is why another tour boat is on its way to take passengers to their main port in Drimmelen. There was no panic, according to the fire department.
The fire started in a generator set that was located in the engine room of the tour boat. The fire brigade extinguished the fire with a fire truck.
“The ship can still sail”
The ship is owned by the company Zilvermeeuw. The shipping company has several tour boats and organizes day trips in the area. The manager tells Omroep Brabant that it was a small fire. “There was no fire, just some smoke,” he said.
According to him, the ship could still sail, but it was anchored just to be safe. “Everything has ended well. We were lucky with where it was. Here we were able to reach the working harbor”, continues the director.
