[email protected] https://www.valorimageproductions.com... Refloated and Underway: The freighter, a 738-foot Canadian bulk carrier, was successfully freed on Saturday with the help of multiple tugs. It has since been cleared to sail and is continuing its journey to Quebec City. Cause of Grounding: The ship had made an unplanned stop at the Belle Isle anchorage to let a sick crew member go ashore for treatment in Windsor. When it attempted to resume its voyage, a combination of strong winds and low water levels in the river pushed it onto the riverbed (sand). No Damage or Pollution: Authorities, including the U.S. Coast Guard and the Windsor harbourmaster, confirmed that there were no injuries and no pollution released into the river as a result of the "soft grounding." The refloating efforts involved coordinating between U.S. and Canadian officials and were made easier on Saturday when the water levels in the harbor rose significantly. The Patricia Hoey tugboat played a key role in the operation to free the grounded freighter, the Rt. Hon. Paul J. Martin. Here are some details about the tugboat and its involvement: The Rescue Effort: The Patricia Hoey, along with at least two other tugs (one from the U.S. side and one from the Canadian side), was part of the coordinated effort to pull the 738-foot bulk carrier off the sandbar. The refloating required the combined power of multiple vessels to maneuver the large ship. Operator: The tug is owned and operated by the Gaelic Tugboat Company, a well-known Detroit-based company specializing in ship assist, towing, and bunkering services on the Great Lakes, primarily on the Detroit and Rouge Rivers. Vessel History: The tugboat is named after Patricia Hoey-Carrothers, the current President of Diamond Jack's River Tours (which was also founded by her father, Captain William A. Hoey III, who started the Gaelic Tugboat Company). The tug itself is a single-screw vessel rated around 2,000 horsepower. Tugboats like the Patricia Hoey are essential for Great Lakes ports, assisting large freighters that have limited maneuverability in confined waters or, as in this case, when they become grounded. ‪@FrankaiDetroitsComebackVideos‬
