MANTEO, N.C. — National Park Service staff are monitoring a commercial fishing vessel that grounded at Cape Hatteras National Seashore (Seashore). The F/V Jonathan Ryan is located near off-road vehicle ramp 48, approximately 1.25 miles southeast of the Frisco Campground.

The Seashore is working with the U.S. Coast Guard and the vessel’s captain to determine next steps for removing the trawler before it reaches the beach.
