- The ship that collided with the Francis Scott Key Bridge nearly eight weeks ago is set to be refloated Monday morning. The Unified Command took 11 News out on the water Sunday to get an up-close view of the Dali ship stuck at the site of the collapse for possibly the last time. Follow live updates on 11 News, the WBAL-TV app and WBALTV.com
I really think it's amazing, the amount of hard work and determination! Hats off to everyone involved in cleaning up the disaster!
Only partly done. Still have most of the roadway to haul up.
Those tugs did a spectacular job of parallel parking that behemoth. Kudos!👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
This is actually the job of the tugs…we use the tugs to do this specific job under normal circumstances.
Yup, that's what those tugs do - day in and day out.....push ships to the dock and pull ships away from the dock.
@@capicolaspicy yep, and this is the company we always use also. This is not part of salvage crew…it is the usual Tug Providers (McAllisters).
Enough cannot be said for the skill of the tugboat Captains and their crews bringing this damaged ship back safely to its berth.
What a well choreographed operation. You guys are all amazing.👍🥰🙏
Such precision work by five tugs, creating perfect changes of direction on the Dali to get lined up wit the dock.
Imagine if Congress could work that way......
Amazing to witness such a small (relatively) boat move a huge load with such a tiny (again relatively) bit of string tying the two together. Thanks for sharing.
Tugboat Operators Rock.
Now that’s the American spirit right there
There's still a sizable chunk of the Key Bridge roadway pavement on the foredeck of the Dali. Wow.
Yes. There's something surreal about it being towed away with a chunk of a four-lane span across the bow. Some things are just not meant to be seen together.
That’s crazy
@@lavenderlampit’s probably keeping water out of whatever’s below it
Amazing to watch. Skilled seamanship 1st class. Watching from West Wales.
BRAVO. You are all hero’s. So glad I got to see this.
It's weird seeing the ship without its bridge attached
And yet at the same time it's bridge is still attached.
One Small Piece for Mankind !
"Breaking up is hard to do" 🎶 The Dali will have to rely on its own (much smaller) bridge.
Awesome view~~ Thanks everyone ~~ Serious Tug boats on duty~💕 Fantastic footage
Fascinating to see tug on the stern pulling "backward, and rocking gently in the tide.
Some of these little guys have in the range of 4000 SHP and the props to deliver it.
Tide doesn't make you rock
@@MrOlgrumpy what is SHP? Thank you 😊
Shaft horse power@@marjoriecorcora7617
@@marjoriecorcora7617 SHP is Shaft Horse Power.
I cant speak to the Moran tug on the stern, but the Eric McAllister is there, shes rated at 5150 hp. 💪💪
It's almost unbelievable that @ this time, DALI was only HALF loaded to full capacity. It could take, hold & deliver ANOTHER 4k containers 🤔😳 RIP to the workers 🤦♂🙏
Can you imagine if the Dali had’ve sunk?! Now that I say that, it would have been months reopening the channel, no?
Huh? Where do you get that info? They can't stack the containers any higher, and a good chunk of them are actually stacked down inside the ship. The bow is the only place, and even if it were clear, they can't put a lot on the bow.
@@Woody615 I, 100% heard that through newscasts & other media channels. I'm sure you could Google it yourself. But YES indeed, the Dali was ONLY at half capacity 👍
@@Woody615 Her container capacity is 9,971 twenty-foot equivalent units (TEU)
@@Woody615 When it impacted the Key bridge, it had approximately, just, 4500 containers on board.
Absolutely historic and awesome! God bless everyone involved. 😊🙏👍
Those tugs are perfect. I mean perfect.
It goes without saying if the tugs had been required to escort giant ships through the limited span of the bridge, none of this would have happened. The size of existing protective structures in the waterway proven grossly inadequate - what protective structures would it take to stop a ship like the Dali?
Great coverage of a fantastic operation. Well done to all. Will there be live coverage of clearing the foredeck of the Dali as it progresses??
🎉🎉 Thank you for 😅move Dali 🚢 with the tugs boats to safe area it's amazing for State and City staff working with Armor forces come together for two months of FSk bridge and prayers 🙏 to all amen 😊
Good news...bravo baltimore
Thanks for sharing this!
❤ loved the coverage double thumbs up a job well done
Theodore Tugboat would be proud of these Tugboats.
They are McCallester ~Moran Tug boats.
Yes he would!
All those crushed containers, WOW !!!
Excellent workmanship to get this ship back to a pier! Hope the men on board can go back home. The investigation is still on going, the only ones there are the captain and 2nd mate, and a few other's on deck. Great progress for the U.S. team and port guys!
I would have continued the voyage after being re-floated! heiwaco.com/DALI.htm
I’d say tugboat captain n crew had a fun day at work , job well done 👏👏👏💫💫💫
The tugboat crews are often underrated professional. It takes a lot of experience and responsibility
Excellent teamwork with the tugs!
Way to go, tugboats!
Praying it all goes well now!!
Wasn't it tugs that pulled another cargo ship out that didn't know how to parallel park? Way to go people.
Since the Dali's cargo amounts to a ship's worth, and there is no spare ship, do the containers go back in the que? or wait for repairs? Is it on the owners of the cargo to rebook with another carrier ?????
Good questions! I’m guessing they will get another ship there to take the containers to their destination. Where was the Dali headed to when it hit the bridge?
@@marjoriecorcora7617 Sri Lanka
The cargo will likely be arrested, and auctioned to part pay for the cost of the salvage.
@@AndrewRoberts11 So if I was a shipper with a load on that ship, I'm screwed?
@@jimswist ...those Owners, shippers and Customers will, or have already been compensated. IF they had their cargo or containers insured. 🤔
Are they going to let the poor crew have some shore leave?
Who here never thought about becoming a tugboat captain? It seems like a neat job.
I see help wanted signs up all over and with the Dali, I'd bet tug boats will be in big demand from now on at all container ports with bridges. Go for it!
OUTSTANDING
My Cousin owns those tugs that moved the Dali. What a heritage and legacy that man and family has left for us all. I am so proud of them. (mcallistertowing )
This is what should have happened in the first place. If a ship this large has had electrical problems while docked, you escort it with tugs past all bridges until it's safe out on the open sea.
Electrical problems caused by fires
You all are so amazing and blessed to do this hard work .
Should have used those tugs to go under the bridge to begin with and this would not have happened!
I hope they check everyone of those containers!!! Might get some vehicles and stuff back to the rightful owners.
*Come on man, get in there, let's see the bow of that ship!!!*
Why isn't the Dali not using it's own engine and just being assisted by the Tugs.
Most of the time the Dali is going sideways, or nearly so, which it can't do on its own engine. Also, sharing propulsion power between 6 tugs is more precise than using a single large engine. Then again: nobody is going to trust that ship's engine until the faults have been corrected.
Plus I can only imagine with the added debris on the bow, slow and steady to not jostle anything. Precarious.
I have never witnessed tugboats in action before. This is fascinating!
@@patricklockerby4308 Maybe the investigators can find technicians that work on electrical protection systems that can use the electrical prints and the targets from the relay protection that will explain the loss of power both times and what was the protection system actually designed to do, expected to do and tested to make sure it works as designed.
1:35:30-1:36:15 The rarely seen by the public NS Savannah, the world's first and I think only nuclear-powered merchant ship. A good idea that didn't work out, still a good looking ship after 75 years, not going anywhere as she's de-nuked.
Thanks for the point out. Lots of other www coverage of the Savannah. Interesting.
Took 6 or more large tugs to tow that thing back to port. WOW
Well the Dali was going backwards and sideways. Not the direction the hull was designed to move through water. I suppose they could have turned the Dali around, towed it to the dock and turned it around again. I'd bet those tugs are getting paid by the hour, not the job so what's the rush. The ship will be sitting at the dock for a very long time.
@@rickpaulos They were not about to let it get away a second time. 👍
TUG Capts n Crew make this look so easy...where's Tim B @ Sea ?
That's some serious tonnage for the tugboats to skillfully move! Good job!
Stern tugboat driver. Scariest job ever.
Maybe a stupid question.. but how does a container ship like that usually 'stay' in position when it's docked? Do they lower the anchor... because I think that they were cut off of the ship to get it moving... do they just 'tie off' / 'tie up' using ropes... normally? Just wondering what they do to prevent it from just drifting away and if the loss of anchors has an effect in this situation?
When you see that ship with the ba-zillion number of containers on it.. you think of the trains in SE Asia with people dangling on the tops, sides, backs and fronts of each train car hitching a ride.
One wonders how many survive from low bridges, signal and obstacles?
Team effort job well done all
ABOUT TIME
Well done guys!!!
3 CHEERS FOR THE DALI!!!
!
How can you REFLOAT a ship that is still floating?????? Ron USCG RET
I believe I heard that the ship was resting (partially) on the river floor with all the weight. So they had to remove stuff to refloat it upwards.
They use water as ballast, so they pump it out or transfer it to a different ballast compartment.
@@willydavid Your Welcome
It was just a soft grounding - heiwaco.com/DALI.htm
How are they going to remove all that heavy material once at the port??? Road deck , steel , smashed containers , those cranes are just for loading and off loading containers??????
Those really big cranes that are cleaning out the bridge parts are still in the area. Yeah, the container cranes have specific tools on the ends of the cables just for grabbing and lifting containers. And the container cranes surely have weight limits. That concrete roadway has to weigh a lot more than any container. Surely they will have a crew on deck cutting up the concrete so they can lift it out in pieces onto a barge.
On the other hand, they may just tell the ship owner its your problem to deal with now.
Did they stop all of the ships in the harbor? Seems like that would be totally unnecessary considering the Dali is only moving at 1mph.
Where’s the orange cone that was on the roadway 🥺 should be saved and put on the memorial for those innocent workers who died 🙏🙏
Why not brought alongside directly under the cranes?
Sorry ? The cranes are on rails, so they can come along the ship in 3 minutes. Why to direct the ship under the cranes? How old are you?
@@iuliandragomir1 The cranes are on rails, so they can come along the ship in 3 minutes. --That's the answer.---Why throw a jab at the guy? Did that validate your pathetic existence? #keyboardwarriorbullypunk
What next? Unload the containers or are they going to be held hostage until some insurance payments are made?
I see that Seagirt is across from FMC (the big white looking plant with the smoke stack). I worked there in the 70's when we were building a new plant to produce insecticide. At the time they were also making rocket fuel adjacent to the new one.
How can the bridge possibly see over the containers to navigate anywhere. TD. Atlanta
Ok,,,Here`s all your stuff back
Maybe this will bring some closure for the families.
Since one of the damaged containers at the bow has a stolen vehicle inside, will the cargo be considered a crime scene and all cargo with the same bill of lading be searched because of discovery??
It would be nice to know what the FBI has determined why electrical breakers got tripped leading to an uncontrollable ship.Was there electrical problems at the dock?Why would a ship set sail that might leave it stranded at sea?What precautions should be in place so it doesn`t happen again? Could it have been a human induced tripping of the breakers?
Hello Dali
For about 1 full minute I was completely amazed at that little helicopter hovering near the live sign not moving, what a nob I felt when I put my reading specs on.😢
Is seagrit upstream or down stream from key bridge area
Took a month to offload all the empty Beer/Wine bottles. Least they got it floating again.
A tug army guiding it
SO WHERE'S THE FIRESALE GOING TO BE FOR THE MERCHANDISE ON BOARD? ? 😂😂😂
Yay!
Wow!
I feel so sorry for the crew. They've been stuck onboard for 8 weeks, their visas are expired, and their cell phones were confiscated. And they had to shelter in place when that big span was blown apart recently. I can't imagine how demoralized they are.
Could be worse. They could be in Gaza. They are alive, well fed & sheltered. I doubt they will have PTSD from the experience. Merchant Mariners are some pretty tough people.
The ship and crew may have played a part but the main reason that the bridge was taken out was the totally obsolete dolphin structure protecting the towers. Bigger ships and no corresponding upgrade to the harbour protection devices. No different to having tinfoil railings on a highway overpass.
@@tomwebster3249 Ever see a semi hit a guardrail they mays well be tinfoil. Without proper protection that ship should of had tug's going at 8 knots.
@@UQRXD You did see that it took five tugs about three hours to move the Dali from the site of the allision to the quay, right? A tug going 8kt to keep pace with a medium-size cargo vessel like the Dali would have virtually no effect in changing its course. It's just physics.
@@Joe-by8jh completely disagree. There are many ways to redirect a ship of that size in order to protect the bridge. One thing should have been that a ship of that size should be guided by tugs until PAST the bridge. That should have been done long ago, if they were unable to build a structure capable of stopping a ship that big from hitting bridge structures, then both speed and tug guidance should have been mandatory. The problem with today's attitudes, is it has never happened and so we continue on as though it won't ever happen, and time and time again we are proven WRONG.. it CAN happen and it WILL happen. The all mighty buck is always the deciding factor. IMPO
Do they need to re-ballast the ship before removing the containers?
Be sure to check for children in those containers
Yeah!
Nice day for a boat ride
Nature can be wonderful if we treated fair. Commerce will improve greatly.
my question is do they offload the containers to another ship or is all those containers be put in the landfill ?
Another ship.
so we finally get our temu shipments now?
FOR EVERYONE INVOLVED TAKE CARE
S what happens now? Do they take all of the containers off the send them via another carrier or do they leave the containers on the Dali?
The Dali will be unloaded. It is due to go in for major repairs.
How many ships could you drop a 4-lane highway on from over 100' up, plus a steel bridge truss over structure to hold up that highway, plus the concrete 4-legged pillar that held all of that up in the air -dropping all from height - and the ship still floats away????
Is that a WW2 Liberty Ship @ 1:36 ?
Do you mean in the background? The black hull, with the white superstructure and a red slash on the bow? I believe that is a Coast Guard buoy tender. They place, relocate, and maintain the channel buoys. They can lift them onto the ship and then crews scrape all the sea growth and barnacles off of them.
At the 8:00 mark, is a good shot of it. You can make out U.S. Coast Guard, and the crane that lifts the buoys on board onto the deck. You can even make out the cutout so that they can load and unload them.
Yes - it’s the John W Brown a museum ship. A google search will bring up their webpage.
Yeah! I looked it up, the gray Liberty Ship is the S.S. JOHN W. BROWN 1943. I thought is was Liberty Ship the moment I saw it.
Just before that 1:34 is the NS Savannah, nuclear powered cargo/passenger ship being refitted as a museum.
NS Savannah, has been a museum ship in Charleston for years, must be going through restoration
God is good.
Good deal!
You broke it. You fix it.
Wow, an awesome chance to show the bow of the ship, but the choppah oddly avoids showing it. Why?
You mean except for the shots starting at the 1:28:00 mark. Good views of the bow then.
@@Woody615 You watched them tow a ship for 88 minutes? Hats off to you. Too bad they didn't zoom that shot and hold it longer.
@@FerrisSOCAL Nope. I set the mouse on the time slider and moved it over and it showed a preview of what was happening. I just slide it over till I saw the bow. 🙂
This is great. We humans like making boo-boos but we also know how to fix them boo-boos too! Go Maryland, you must have some Texan in you, getter done.
Nah no treason in Maryland
@@nothanks9503 do not understand your reply? I gave “kudos “ to Maryland for doing a good job.
Bravo Zulu 🎉
Fascinating watching the tugs.
Hope they don’t scratch it
NS Savannah, peacetime nuclear powered ship commissioned by President Eisenhower has a mural in main dining room done by my father Pierre Bourdelle 😊 at time stamp 1:35
At 1:35 Tim mark
I was named after president Eisenhower Dwight.
Yo me pregunto toda esa carga será devuelta a sus dueños oh que harán con ella.
It’s going to it’s destination minus the stolen vehicles
Is that mammoth ship under it's own power??
Why do they say refloated? It never sank. How about, relocated. How about, heading backwards to seagirt.
We’ll done.
I'm glad the drone didn't hit the helicopter.
