Ramsgate from Dunkirk and in a position about 6.5 miles east of Ramsgate when fire broke out in the
main engine room. The fire was caused by the failure of a bolted flange joint on the low pressure fuel
system to No 4 main engine, allowing flammable fuel oil vapour to come into contact with part of the
engine exhaust system. Initial attempts to extinguish the fire were unsuccessful, mainly due to failure of
the auxiliary generators and the emergency fire pump and despite the injection of Kalongs into the space.

and oxygen. The fire was finally reported as extinguished about three hours from the onset of the
emergency. The incident required the co-ordinating role of HM Coastguard Dover, off-shore fire fighting
teams from Kent Fire Brigade, RAF and HM Coastguard helicopters. A total of 85 non-essential crew and
17 passengers were transferred ashore by RNLI lifeboats based at Ramsgate and Margate. Tugs and other
