Some movements in the Strait

  The Sichem New York was anchored in Pirate Habour Anchorage after it came in to our port apparently with heating problem.The vessel appeared at the south pilot station the evening of the 11th of February and departed the anchorage about 1135h on the 12th with APA pilot Elias Dorey assisting in the safe passage out to the pilot station where he was picked up by the pilot vessel Strait Falcon.

The vessel was headed upriver and would be embarking an ice pilot when it arrives off of Port aux Basques NL
    The self-unloading bulker the Rt.Hon. Paul E. Martin was moved from the NS Power coal dock over to Mulgrave after 0700h this morning for some scheduled maintainence.

Out in the Chedabucto Bay deep anchorages the CSL Acadian was mated up with the Marivictoria to begin a topoff after 0830h this morning but would be separating for the duration of the large storm  moving into our area.
