island arrecife vessel towed miles drifting lobos

Towed to Arrecife a drifting vessel 2.4 miles from Lobos Island
#1
The Portuguese-flagged vessel 'Canarias Express' has been towed on Tuesday morning to the Port of Arrecife after it was left adrift about 2.4 miles from the Island of Lobos.

This has been reported by Maritime Rescue, which adds that the intervention began after receiving the notice of an unsteered boat in the Strait of La Bocaina, between Lanzarote and Fuerteventura.

In this way, the Las Palmas Coordination Center transferred the Guardamar Polimnia to the site, which towed the 'Canarias Express' in the first instance to take it off the coastline.

Subsequently, the tugboat 'VB Achaman' arrived in the area, which took charge of transferring the ship to the Port of Arrecife.
To me drinking responsibly means do not spill it.
