Thanks Jeff! I’ve been waiting all day for your video and report, since I saw the local news photos. Captain Andy and you never fail with great coverage!
Thank you Jeff. I think they must have got special permission to move it to a repair Port to undertake repairs with tugs to escort throught the passage due to special circumstances. I say this because after observing the damage to the bow area the vessel the vessel is not seaworthy. Both anchors should be in working condition but in this case most of the bow section is in a mess. Luckily they collided bow area to bridge foundation support so only bow area watertight compartment damaged. Ship needed to move from the container berth because it is just creating another delay for container ship's to berth and most importantly commence repairs at a Port which can do the job. It must be a nightmare for all parties, with insurance claims, cargo delay claims, and possible personal liability to some crew members if it is found they caused blackout. So glad as an ex Captain I was not on that ship when this big mess happened.
I have watched every minute of your outstanding coverage of this terrible event, Jeff. Your knowledge and explanations have been so helpful to the average viewer in keeping us informed on what was happening from the very beginning of the bridge collapse clean up. Will be watching as you continue to keep us apprised as to the plans which hopefully will result in the rebuilding of the Key Bridge. Thanks so much!
I trust you’ll also tell us all about the proposed blueprints of the new bridge that various companies will submit. 😃 I do believe that your analysis and explanation (along with your graphics) will be much better than anyone else’s, and so I look forward to this. (Assuming you want to make videos on the blueprints for the new bridge, that is.) 🙂
I watched this live earlier today. People were making the wildest, cruelest comments. So many ugly assumptions. I know Baltimore is heartbroken about the bridge and the deaths.
My take on why they didn't remove the concrete pillar: At the dock the cranes can handle only containers weighing 50t or so. And the ship has to go the a shipyard anyway. There are cranes which can handle up to 800t. And they are directly on top of the ship not sideways as the ones on the dock. So the pieces don't have to be disassembled or taken apart more than necessary. The yard's cranes can take them away in one piece if need be.
@@einfelder8262 Probably there is something to hide that they don't want to uncover within sight of drones, etc. At military shipyard they can get away with murder.
@@jeffostroff Not to question that. But I look at the convenience of the setting. The dock is not the place to work on debris. You could lift the pillar from the seaside by that crane and put it like all other parts on a barge. I see the whole shebang get to a place where all the tools are available 24/7. And it had to go there and take repairs anyway. So why involve another outfit and place when you have one to do it all. But we all have to make choices. And I don't know which company and work would occur at what costs. And that's what in the end the decisions are based on. Shipping is cutthroat business. BTW, I can recomment the book "Freighter Captain" by Max Hardberger. Deals withlost cost tramp shipping. Good read from a real captain.
@@V100-e5qthe large piece is not a pillar but the solid pile cap that the bridge structure attaches to. Would likely have to be removed in pieces and would be better suited to remove it during repairs. It does have part of one of the hollow pillars still attached though
"What a beautiful view" as the ship responsible for billions of dollars of damage is in the middle of the picture! Thanks for your videos though really!
The Jones act is the law preventing a ship from making consecutive US port stops unless it’s built in the US, and crewed by IS citizens. In this case, they may not consider Dali as actually “leaving” port, or there’s an exception for emergency repairs.
May that ship NEVER return to Baltimore again. It has caused so much chaos, loss and disruption of lives to so many people all around this country that we do not need it anywhere near this port again!
The tugs likely making absolutely, positively sure it doesn't take another bite out of the bridge (or the Bay Bridge downstream!), then once it's out of harm's way, allow it to continue unescorted.
Bless you Jeff for picking up the reins now that Captain Andy is off to cover the demoliition of the Chemical Plant. Love that you showed the area where the Dali will have the containers offloaded and then off to the repair area. There are suppose to be 6 cameras statiioned in the Virginia International Gateway section but I cannot figure out how to access them. I hope you can! Please continue to keep us in the loop! Your analysis and commentary skills are amazing.
Jeff, great shots and coverage. The Dali looks great sailing through the channel but my take is that it won't go too far since the bow still has a gaping hole in it.
hey Jeff, thanx for the Dali coverage so far. I was expecting to have had removed all the Pylon cement/concrete remnants off of Dali, before move, since all the equipment were there. I am sure, if they had an imported crew, job would've been done n quick at a fraction of cost. They -authorities-held de Dali crew accountable, but the drivers were the port Pilots, n nobody talks about them. Yes, port water traffic channels were cleared for Marine traffic -very important- n NO accidents. After all is done, there will b no equity left on Dali for its owners. These ppl there work for at least 1K$/day. We will pay for the new Bridge.
The Chesapeake Bay Bridge is another example of a vital bridge with totally insufficient protection to the bridge pier supports. And with the exception of recent sailing of the Dali under it, there are not going to be tugboats for guidance. I hope no one is shocked at the utter incompetence and negligence of our governments.
Dali will unload a portion at one terminal the remainder at the next and probably go to the Newport News shipyard because that seems to be the only yard that handle that size. They work on the aircraft carriers there.
So... what bridge will be next? Or do you think they will actually revisit all bridges and protect them from such a disaster? Ships are WAY too large now.
Many of the containers were empty for return to Sri Lanka. They couldn't unload the containers because the ship needed the weight on it, otherwise it would've been too high in the water to pass under the Chesapeake Bay bridge at Annapolis.
@@jeffostroff You're probably thinking of the Jones Act, which requires ships carrying cargo between US ports to be US built, US owned, and the majority of the crew to be US citizens. Not sure if a container transferred to another ship in this case would violate the act. I am sure that ever since the Dali hit the bridge, lawyers specializing in maritime law have been falling to sleep every night to big dreams of billable hours.
@@sleepyjay2664It's likely they'll be pouring over the exact wording and arguing that it's designed to cover scheduled port to port journeys, so shouldn't cover circumstances like this. Added onto which, although shipping accidents are rare, it's possible that at some time in the past a ship has run aground or lost power in US waters (likely without crashing into a bridge or sinking!) - if so, there'd presumably be legal precedent.
Most of the containers are empty for return to India. The rest weren't unloaded because they needed weight on the ship so it could pass under the Chesapeake Bay bridge at Annapolis. If unloaded it would have been too high on the water to pass under the bridge.

The cargo isn't for Baltimore, but I would expect that it would be transferred at Norfolk docks. How long for repairs? I doubt they could just leave it there for any longer, customers getting upset for sure.

Thank you Jeff for all the time you take to send out videos. Would a tunnel be a viable alternative to another bridge? As was done years ago when the Chesapeake Bay Bridge Tunnel was constructed at the mouth of the Chesapeake Bay. Tunnels were made so that the Navy yard would not be trapped behind a collapsed bridge. Evidently, Maryland was also concerned about building bridges instead of using tunnels across the mouth of the Chesapeake Bay. Just curious.
when the ship was being towed out of the harbor you identified the Island as Ft McHenry, Its actually Ft Carroll named of Charles Carroll of Carrollton (signer of the Declaration of Indepence) the fort as it was being constructed the Army Corps of Engineers assigned a very bright officer named Robert E Lee, (where have we herd that name)
5:36 closed traffic for this cursed ship to pass under the bridges. Bit of a sting to the crew of the Dali along with a concrete reminder on the bow. Do not come back ever again. RIP. Alejandro, Dorlian, Miguel, Maynor, Jose, and Carlos. Of the one that survived ( Im sorry I dont have the name) I wish you well and seek peace.
Though the delivery of the contents of the containers is late they probably now have increased value for historical reasons once it can be proved it was on the ill fated ship by the consignee.
There were a lot of refrigerated containers. I doubt their cargo will be worth much, even if they were able to keep them refrigerated. That's all perishable food of one sort or another.
The Jones Act does not generally allow a foreign flagged vessel to pick up something at one US port and drop the same container at another. Just come in, pick up, and get out of the US or come in drop off something and get out of the US. This must be a special condition since it is not part of regular commerce.
I think the reason why Dali can’t unload all the container is because of the law that says something like ships that are not registered in the US cannot transport cargo or people between two American ports. It’s the same reason why cruise ships that leave American ports always stop in Canada or some other country before returning to the US.
Most of the containers are empty for return to India. The rest weren't unloaded because they needed weight on the ship so it could pass under the Chesapeake Bay bridge at Annapolis. If unloaded it would have been too high on the water to pass under the bridge.
I was expecting them to unload at Baltimore, because you don't usually take cargo places unnecessarily if you can help it, so obviously they've a reason. I wonder what it is?

I’m surprised they didn’t get permission to offload the containers in Baltimore. Also surprised they don’t just offload everything in Norfolk, then the ship leaves and sails to a shipyard in Asia somewhere for surely cheaper hull and electrical system repairs…which will also almost certainly include repainting and a name change (at the very least) for the vessel.

so, I'm guessing the cargo was insured, and paid off, and now those containers will be "salvage" ?? or will they still try and ship those out to their intended destinations?
It could be possible that some of the cargo was originally scheduled to go there. Drop some off pick some up. But not pick up any this time so it could go in for repairs.

One detail I can't understand: Why is Dali still loaded? I assume she will not be ready for service at least 1/2 of a year - shall all the cargo remain on it?

Just wondering as they unload those containers, are they going to be inspected for their contents? There has been speculation about that, especially when some of those damaged containers had autos in them, and that they may have been stolen.
Why tf is she still filled w cargo? Isnt she heading to norfolk for drydock ship repairs? Our port loaded her, you would think they would unload her before the journey, no? Now norfolk will have to unload and cause further delay of all those items. Crazy to me

Strange to see the Dali pass beneath the Bay Bridge with a chunk of the Key Bridge still on its bow! Not something I'd ever thought I'd see....
And a plastic trap covering the the gash in the bow.

You did a great job covering this ! ❤
Thanks for your great coverage! I used that same web site to track the ship bringing my car from America to Spain, it has great detail.
Yet more bridges seemingly without any dolphin protection whatsoever from having the same incident.
It was only 'towed' away from the dock. For most of its journey it is under its own power with the tugs only providing so some steering guidance.

Likely to be for insurance reasons. Unsure if the 'cargo' is declared as lost & then owned by the salvagers ti be disposed of.

Most of the containers are empty for return to India. The rest weren't unloaded because they needed weight on the ship so it could pass under the Chesapeake Bay bridge at Annapolis. If unloaded it would have been too high on the water to pass under the bridge.
so, I'm guessing the cargo was insured, and paid off, and now those containers will be "salvage" ?? or will they still try and ship those out to their intended destinations?
It could be possible that some of the cargo was originally scheduled to go there. Drop some off pick some up. But not pick up any this time so it could go in for repairs.
Any reason why they didnt unload the containers?

7:41 Norfolk destinations to unload, then repair
Word is that they might be investigating stolen cars that were in some of the torn open containers.

Also, note she was under power after she went under the Chessie Bay Bridge
One detail I can't understand: Why is Dali still loaded?
I assume she will not be ready for service at least 1/2 of a year - shall all the cargo remain on it?

How long will it take to get to Norfolk
I thought the containers would have been unloaded as the cranes are there. The items in those containers must be into several million
Jones Act laws prevent them from unloading

Take it out to the international boundries, and see who pick it up.
Are tugboats still required for transiting the Federal Channel through the remains of the Key Bridge?
Only for Dali
Not that vital I guess, but I keep wondering what is in all these containers. Nothing too perishable, hopefully.
Just wondering as they unload those containers, are they going to be inspected for their contents? There has been speculation about that, especially when some of those damaged containers had autos in them, and that they may have been stolen.
I would like to see customs scrub all these containers
they actually ship used cars, trucks, and semi-tractors out of Baltimore legitimately.
Why tf is she still filled w cargo? Isnt she heading to norfolk for drydock ship repairs? Our port loaded her, you would think they would unload her before the journey, no? Now norfolk will have to unload and cause further delay of all those items. Crazy to me
Did any government agency address the vehicles in the containers and whether their shipment was legit?
That is about 250 miles by car. Baltimore to Norfolk. Does Jeff have a satellite office in Norfolk ?
I wish I had one.
great
They repaired it? How can it sail on the ocean with a hole in the bow?
Why would all that cargo still be aboard? Couldn’t it be offloaded and continued on its trip to final destinations?

Anyone know the person's name who crashed this ship?

👍.JEFF O 👍
Did they patch the hull with a tarp?
It will be gone before it makes it to port
I think they left the concrete pillar for weight in the bow
1:38 That little island is not Fort McHenery.
I thought it was McHenry, what island is it?
@@jeffostroff Fort Carroll
Do they still have more debris to clean up off the bottom
YEs the main channel is 100% clear, they are now working on the other sections where roadway fell into the water
