A drunken Russian ship’s captain was minutes from running his 82 metre freighter aground off Sjællands Odde during the night after he fell soundly asleep on the bridge, with his vessel only saved by rescue personnel lowered onto the deck.
It was in the early hours of Friday that Admiral Fleet Denmark (SOK) observed the Bahamas-flagged vessel dangerously close to the coast and dispatched a helicopter to investigate.
