First Ship Departs Baltimore Harbor following Key Bridge Collapse by Dali
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 24 апр 2024
- Salvores have succeeded in open a portion of the Key Bridge Channel enough to allow ships to pass. The first such ship was the M/V Balsa 94 departing Baltimore Harbor. The Salvors are ahead of schedule as this limited use passageway wasn't expected to be open until the end of April.

Andy please. Indulge in An Old Man’s eulogy for the Key Bridge:
“Living north of Baltimore in Towson, it was a pleasant drive around the beltway to cross the Patapsco River on the Key Bridge.
The view West was spectacular as the entire Harbor and Downtown were a panoramic sight to behold. The view East was of the Chesapeake Bay and the bucolic living on the Eastern Shore.
Some days we’d cross it TWICE: Over and Back after lunch up on Rock Creek.
I will miss that Bridge that I traversed both OVER and UNDER during the entire 47 years of its existence.
At my age I hope to live long enough to ride over whatever bridge replaces this graceful Baltimore icon.

Sam; Wow. Thanks for sharing. I'm on the West Coast but I have places/experiences , too; We all do and this is such a feeling tribute for the life journeys/experiences we love. I, too, hope you live long enough to ride again........People everywhere are cheering on Baltimore and this rebuild process. My sincere condolences for the lives lost and the horrible pain of this catastrophe.

Thanks for the kind reply Andy is a true gentleman 😊
Nice coverage as usual you are great at what you do Andy 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼🥰
Thank you kindly
thanks for being there
Superb job by everyone working on get the channel open and recovery of the poor innocent souls who were there that early morning.
All the way 🇺🇸 USA 🇺🇸 AMAZING GROUP OF HARD WORKING MEN & WOMAN ON THIS PROJECT THANKS ANDY
thanks for keeping us in the uk updated. great news about balsa 94 caroline
Great reporting. Thanks for the updates. A really heroic effort by all involved.
Much appreciated
Great news! Glad to hear the progress. Thanks for the great coverage and all that you put into this. No one provides the views, insight and information you do in the way you do.
Much appreciated!
Good news still praying for the 2 missing workers.
Same here
Somehow think they found them but the information wasn't released to the public. Like with the 4th person, when they withheld the news for several days. I cannot imagine them using dredging machinery and opening a shipping channel on a location where they would have to assume there are still bodies in the water (new channel is exactly where the construction vehicles dropped in the water according the the video of the collapse)
They worked their tails off to make this happen!!
Yes Derrick they sure have I was just beside myself just see the vessel I said Yes they did it
Another good report!
MayGod be with all the workers
Came here from whats going on ib ahipping just to say thanks for sharing (and if course leaving a comment help drive reach.
Thanks for your wodk. ❤
Welcome aboard!
Tremendous News 🤠🤟🏼🤠🤟🏼…. These crews are knocking it outta the park
That's great news for the Port of Baltimore to get the ships moving again in & out of port.
Really appreciate your following and reporting on the Port of Baltimore. Fantastic job and so historically appropriate. I have a new appreciation of ships now and their importance to the whole world.
Another excellent update! Thank you!
This ship is relatively small, and not loaded. In any case it's an extremely good sign that at least some good sized ships are able to exit the port. This ship is more than a small boat.
Thank you Capt. Andy for your great reporting and images.
Many thanks
The Carmen is on the way out! A vessel that has called here in Savannah for years.
Unbelievable is the only word I can say. Thanks for great coverage.
Much appreciated
Great coverage
M/V Carmen was a very large vehicle transport vessel that left Thursday afternoon.
Great to Know. Thanks
You bet!
Thank You
Great news breaking, Captain Andy!
😃
@0:55 I believe the Ft Carroll channel is the 20ft channel to the north, where span 19 used to be. The 35 ft limited access channel is the Ft McHenry channel.
The 35ft Limited Access channel turned out to be 38' after surveying. It's on the northern side of the Fort McHenry channel and only 300ft wide, pretty cool though. Got to see 5 departures and two arrivals on Livestream
Well done keeping us informed.
Thank you Mr.Andy this is Wonderful News
You are very welcome
America never stays down for long !
🇺🇸 GOD BLESS AMERICA! 🇺🇸
Worked many Balsa ships. They are quite small as is the Splithof Gracht ship but that is great news all the same.
I am understanding that the Balsa 94 is running up the coast to get a load! Empty...
Yes, it has a 4-day journey to St. John, New Brunswick, Canada.
It is on its way there enpty.
Thank you. Take care
Thank you too
Thank you for sharing this great news my friend
Thanks for watching
Motion! Freedom!
4 weeks and 2 days after collapse. Or 1 day shy of 1 month.
Is it fully opened-no. But it is opened.
I said when everyone was saying months that the port would be closed down, that it would be weeks-actually fewer than I figured. When they said end of April, I really did not believe they would make that deadline.
Wow that bulker is riding crazy high
No kidding!
Has no load and looks like it is not running any ballast.
In the video there is a closeup of the bow with a 3m draft.
Great work, freight gotta move!!
You got that right!
Who is the owner of the ship dali?
Some rumors said the deceased Angela Os, part of the shipping line of 4:18 Dali,is it true?
The Dredge Dale Pyatt is a key player in this
Promised 35' but got 38' instead. Channel closes for Dali recovery on Monday 29th
Yeah, but the channel may only be open for about 5-days. Til dredging of the bridge's roadway debris starts to make a deeper channel.
What's with the "radio" truck on the SW side of the Key Bridge?
Cieszę się razem z wami i trzymam kciuki za prace w porcie . Pozdrawiam z Polski
It's great that ships are moving in / out of the harbor, however, is this activity disrupting / disturbing the area where the two remaining road workers are buried along with bridge debris...just asking...?
Are they towing the ship thru the bridge with the ships wheel stoped to avoid disturbance of the bottom
Did The GOVIS Ship Ever Get To Port? Or was it going out? I lost track of it. ?? Terry
GLOVIS? I think there was one in Tradepoint Atlantic recently.
The backlog is big, any time frame on when they will allow inbound?
Ships have been arriving!
Looks to be empty. Wonder if any loaded ships can use this channel
Yes. At minimum "car" carriers will be able to transit while the channel is opened (not being deepened).
New Protocol: take on ballast only after passing the bridge zone...
Why would a tug(April Moran) be towing from the bow in reverse?
Because she is a tractor tug and can apply complete thrust in 360 degrees.
Tugs back to work! 👍
Great news Andy. Delighted to see the tugs in action.
Are they going to allow cruise ship in and out?
Leaving May 12 in the ship, Pride has a draw of 3 miters.
Great question for Unified Command
The current information in MSIB 043-24 Update 1 says that vessels greater than 60000 long tons of displacement will likely not be allowed to transit, and I imagine the cruise ships are more than that. But they’re updating the guidelines all the time, and I bet if they move the Dali in the first part of May a lot of those restrictions will go away with it.
@@MinorcanMullet how do you contact them?
www.keybridgeresponse2024.com/
We're all the victims recovered ? We're there 6 bodies missing?
Yes 6, 4 recoverd the last I heard, that leaves 2 remaining.
They will add ballast once they are in deep water.
The other channel I talked about in the previous video is an engineer jeffostroff if you're interested, keep up the excellent coverage of this bridge recovery😊❤🎉
Thanks, will do!
It looked like she only had 2 meters of draft which would mean she was empty.
She looked light
In the video there is a closeup of the bow showing a 3m draft.
If I can ask, is that some sort of lifeboat pointing doward at 4:02? How is it launched?
(Red/orange in color)
Anyone? 🤔
It is and there are videos on RUclips showing the deployment
Gravity. Crew would have to strap in to avoid injury.
@@MinorcanMullet
TY! 👍🤠
@@williamlloyd3769
That's exactly what I assumed. Just like an amusement ride but the situation would be far from amusing.
TY! 👍🤠

👍👍👍👍👍
Just don't ask why they are using tug boats now so the ships don't collide with the bridge like most world ports do.
I send ya'lla little present every day. Dont worry we spend so much on it its cleaner than the river water that carries it down to you. You can actually drink it im told.
👀
Day 31. Still not one factual honest answer to how/why this preventable incident was allowed to happen.
1.) Who greenlighted the Dali as seaworthy when it's electrical problems were not resolved while docked?
2.) The Dali summoned escort tugboats while in the channel however they pulled away from her sides before reaching open sea. Why?
3.) Coincidentally the Dali lost all power moments after the tugs disembarked from the Dali. Main power failed, backup power failed then finally the emergency power failed as well. Why?
4. ) whoeved was in command decided to drop anchor causing the ship to veer starboard. Why?
5.) Someone alerted Mayday distress. Bridge was almost cleared except for the 8 innocent worker's still on the bridge. 2 survived but 6 innocent lives were needlessly lost. Why?
I think that I will be looking at the investigation reports when the reports are released just as many others will be. Hopefully light is shed on this event and brings understanding. I will say ships loose power often. Unfortunately this event had catastrophic consequences and the loss of life.
@@MinorcanMullet all I know for certain is if I was the driver/ operator of a car, truck, bus or boat and negligently caused a collision which in turn caused a bridge to collapse in the water I know I wouldn't be sleeping comfortably in my own bed after it happened. I have positive I wouldn't wake up in the morning watching the prez assuring all Americans that ' he's got there backs' because he's going to make sure this is cleaned up ASAP.a d the repair/rebuild/ replace will happen ASAP!
No, I think the police or coast guard will have their answers before daybreak and I'd probably be incarcerated until bond or trial with multiple criminal citations including the reckless taking of 6 innocent people lives who happened to be on the bridge at the time of impact.
How is this different? Because someone was operating a bigger boat than I ?
Was this other operator in compliance with all federal laws and mandatory safety regulations? Was protocol followed?
31 days and we don't even know who was operating this huge vessel or who in the world greenlighted the Dali to ever leave dock without it's electrical problems resolved?
I just don't get two tier judicial system. Why?

Hey Greg. Been looking for you
