The Renasa is a Dutch river tanker which was involved in an accident on 9 January 2004 which demolished a windmill.
[edit] History
Renasa was built by Stocznia Kozle Serwis Sp z o.o., (now Damen Shipyards Kozle) and launched in 1999.[1]
[edit] Accident
On 9 January 2004, Renasa was involved in an accident on the Prinses Margrietkanaal that resulted in the Haensmole, (Grouw, Friesland), which stood on the corner of the Pikmeer, being demolished. The Haensmole has since been repaired and rebuilt in a new position by the Biggemeer.[2][3]
