After the storm of Jan.31,2013

The rough weather was the cause of a few ship delays  on Thursday the 31st of January but clear skies and diminished winds allowed the resumption of vessel traffic .First in was the crude oil tanker SCF Baikal which was docked at the Nustar Ocean berth One assisted by the tugs Point Valiant,Atlantic Fir and Svitzer Bedford.The Atlantic Fir was in the area to temporarily replace the Point Chebucto which is out of the area on refit..As the tanker was inbound caught a glimpse of the offshore surf clam vessel Ocean Endurance heading out to sea from Mulgrave.

       Shortly after the tanker was docked the tugs Point Valiant and Svitzer Bedford were tasked to assist in the docking of the self unloading bulk carrier Harmen Oldendorff at the Martin Marietta Quarry Dock in Aulds Cove to load some construction aggregate.
