Crippled Fairmast

Returns To YVC

On September 21, Jumbo Navigation's heavy load carrier Fairmast returned to YVC — where the vessel was built in 1983 — to undergo extensive damage repairs at YVC Bolnes Dockyard, in Rotterdam. The vessel sustained severe damage in a Philippine dockyard when it was refloated before steel repairs had been completed, resulting in deforma- tion of the vessel.

The YVC Group consists of the newbuilding yard at YVC Ysselwerft at

Capelle a/d Ijssel and YVC Bolnes Dockyard in Rotterdam. The repairs comprise the renewal of the entire midship's body over a length of 197 ft. (60 m), as well as extensive steel replacements in other locations. In total, approximately 1,300 tons of steel will be renewed. Repairs are anticipated to be completed by early 1997.
