Essential crew remained onboard to support the tow, while the Singapore Civil Defence Force helped transfer other crew members to shore.There were no reported injuries among the crew of either vessel nor pollution arising from the incident, MPA said, adding that navigational traffic was not affected.MPA said it issued navigational safety broadcasts to keep other vessels clear of the tow and escorted the fishing vessel into port with an MPA craft.
