On 4/11/1994 , the vessel SHELLEY DAWN II (Official Number 808226) was involved in a collision - with another vessel or other floating object in 98 NM SOUTH OF HALIFAX, NOVA SCOTIA, NOVA SCOTIA (NS).

The vessel, with 4 persons on board, experienced the incident while engaged in regular operations. Fortunately, the ship was able to continue its voyage. No injuries or fatalities were reported, and there was pollution.

This incident was officially recorded by Transport Canada on 2/13/1995 . Weather at the time was reported as fog with winds from the SW at knots.

At night, in poor visibility, the "FEDERAL OSLO" was proceeding at a full speed of 13.5 knots, from Wilmington, Delaware, USA, to Contrecoeur, Quebec, when she collided with the stationary fishing vessel "SHELLEY DAWN II". Both vessels sustained minor damage. No one was injured and there was no pollution.

The Board determined that the collision between the "FEDERAL OSLO" and the "SHELLEY DAWN II" occurred because neither vessel was maintaining a proper look-out and the "FEDERAL OSLO" had not reduced speed in fog.
