Beryl accident investigation report and safety flyer published
Person overboard from twin rig stern trawler Beryl, 21nm west-north-west of the Shetland Islands, Scotland with loss of 1 life.

The report into MAIB’s investigation of a fatal accident after a crew member was dragged overboard from fishing vessel Beryl on 10 February 2015 is now published.

A safety flyer to the fishing industry accompanies our report. Along with a summary of what happened, the flyer also highlights how it is easier to prevent crew from falling overboard than it is to recover them from the water.
