A fishing boat that had been grounded near Fortune on Newfoundland's south coast is back in the water after a week of efforts to return it to safety.

The ship, called the Cape Cordell, ran aground just outside Fortune Harbour last Wednesday as a blustery winter storm hit much of Newfoundland and Labrador.

Blain Trainor, the Canadian Coast Guard's acting deputy superintendent of hazard response, said crews successfully got the boat back to Fortune Harbour on Thursday morning.
