HALIFAX The Liberian freighter Kismet II lay rocked on a northern Cape Breton reef as freezing winds and heavy seas blocked rescue efforts.

The crew, about 20, remained aboard as the ship sailed from Philadelphia on November 17 for Summerside to load potatoes. The Eastore was ordered but recalled when danger subsided.
