Yes he/she arrived safely in Rotterdam after a couple of days.. Thanks Willem for the pictures. Thanks Bouler. I have the full rapport over the event, here is a summing-up what happened. The Zhen Hua 10 sailing under the St. Vincent & The Grenadines Flag, arrived at Rotterdam on 1 February 2008 around 9 am. At this time there was a wind force of 7 Beaufort. Because of the wind catch of the hi deck cargo, Hua 10 has a wind restriction of maximum 7 Beaufort, this means Hua 10 was not allowed to enter the port of Rotterdam. The captain decide to anchor the vessel, he choose to anchor the ship on the eastside of the anchor ground, as there are other vessels already on the west side (further away from the shore) to avoid a collision if the anchor would not hold. At midnight the anchors and engine on full power could not hold the ship in place. The western winds where increased to 9 Beaufort, with gust to 11 Beaufort. The captain informed the harbour authorities and request a tug boat. (look at the original map for a kept up log from the crew, until she stranded) In the night of 5 February tugboats from Smit released the vessel, and moored in the port of Rotterdam. Ms Zhen Hua 10 is build in 1981 as a oil tanker, in 2005 she was converted to transport container cranes. The engine and anchors where not changed!!!. It is possible that she and similar ships will not be allowed to transport cranes in the future. |
