On Christmas
Day 2005
we all began a journey as M/V
APL Panama
began
her "Day
At The Beach"
off Esenada,
Mexico--which
lasted almost 5 months until May 2006. This stands as the
most intense maritime
loss
The Cargo Letter
has ever covered. If you have not seen this -- take a few
moments -- M/V
APL Panama
. But
with the
M/V MSC Sabrina incident
-- we are now spending a "day" on the
St.
Lawrence River
-- which connects the world to the
Port
of Montreal. While
we all know that "Ship

©"
-- this feature demontrates the extent to which the
dedication, skill & talent of a single company --
with the help of salvage tugs -- confronted & solved
it's own problem for the benefit of both it's cargo
customers and the environment. BRAVO ZULU
to
Mediterranean
Shipping Company! Sadly,
this feature also points out the shocking lack of shipper
education as to common perils of the sea -- and how these
risks are handled by the simple arranging of quality
Marine Cargo Insurance. Below
is not a "day" -- but a month in the mud for
M/V
MSC Sabrina.

M/V MSC Sabrina - Shrouded In The Mist - Grounded In The St. Lawrence River
M/V MSC Sabrina -- Up The Three Rivers Without Three Paddles
From The Cargo Letter - March 16 2008243 meter Panama-flagged container M/V MSC Sabrina (IMO 8714205), Montreal from France, ran aground in the St. Lawrence River near Trois-Rivières, Quebec, Canada, on Mar. 8. Initial attempts to free the vessel by tug were unsuccessful. Initial reports indicate it could take weeks to free the vessel. From our Sr. Correspondent Tim Schwabedissen (Sun. March 16 2008)

M/V MSC Sabrina Is Stuck Deep In The Mud
Published Resident Report of The Period - March 8 2008
"It's amazing, kind of [an] amazing situation. I think of all those customers waiting for all of those cargo," said Andre Lemire, whose company co-ordinated this fourth and successful attempt to free the ship. Some people aren't so happy. A volunteer at the local seamen's club, Noël Charpentier, said the vessel has become a big local attraction."There's not very much that happens in Trois-Rivières, so as soon as something like that happens I've seen so many people sitting in their cars [watching it] all day long. One area resident, Olivier Grosleau, said the ship should be turned into a museum."
Published News Report of The Period - March 13 2008
"The ship, it didn't move at all," said Pierre LeBrun, a marine safety inspector with Transport Canada. The shipping company will now have to lighten the weight of the vessel by offloading cargo onto a barge with a crane."This is a big logistic. We don't want the crane to take a container and, by accident, a container falls in the water", said LeBrun.
Owners of M/V MSC Sabrina have to draft a detailed plan of how it intends to proceed and submit it to Transport Canada for approval.
The vessel is not blocking or polluting the waterway, and the shipping company or its insurance will pay the full cost of the removal.
It's not the first time M/V MSC Sabrina has encountered trouble. The ship collided with a Dutch fishing vessel in June 2000 off the coast of the Netherlands, and 15 minutes later struck a British cargo vessel. Neither accident resulted in major damage.
Mediterranean Shipping Company
"Due to the complexity of the operation and following extensive research and information gathering, we have devised a plan and presently await approval from a number of government agencies. This recovery plan must be treaded carefully in order to adhere to local Customs, Transport and environmental concerns.""MSC expects to implement their plan of action before the end of March, providing that the necessary equipment becomes available on time. If all goes as planned, the vessel should then proceed to Montreal during the first week of April 2008."
Great Lakes and Seaway Shipping News - March 12 2008
Fully cellular containership M/V MSC Sabrina remains stuck fast in two feet of clay at Three Rivers. Five tugs tried in vain to pull it free, three of the tugs have returned to their home ports. A new plan has been submitted to remove containers from the vessel. According to reports fully cellular containership M/V MSC Yokohama will unload in Montreal and proceed to Tree Rivers and lighter M/V MSC Sabrina. This is expected to take place in the next few days. M/V MSC Yokohama is due in Montreal Mar 14. New reports blame the grounding on wind, blinding snow and too much headway.Editor Note: M/V MSC Yokohama was substituted & never arrived on scene.
Tow Off Efforts Led By M/V Ocean Delta Prove Unsuccessful.
M/V MSC Sabrina Is Too Heavy & Hard Aground.
M/V MSC Sabrina & Her Cargo Will Sit -- Stranded For The Next 20 Days
Fisheries and Oceans Canada - March 21 2008
"The Government of Canada is closely monitoring Panamanian ship M/V MSC Sabrina which ran aground in Trois-Rivières and will study the final lightering plan as soon as it is received. The plan must be prepared by the ship's owner and submitted to Transport Canada and the Canadian Coast Guard for assessment. M/V MSC Sabrina was heading to the Port of Montréal when her southern side struck ground along Section 20 of the Port of Trois-Rivières on March 8.""On March 8, 2008 & there after refloating attempts were made using a number of tugboats, all to no avail."

From Our Reader
I have received eye witness accounts that the lightening process has begun with the M/V MSC Sabrina. Though no official statement has been made, I have been told that they are attempting to unload atleast 30% of the containers and then attempting to use tugs to Pull the lighter M/V MSC Sabrina from the clay in which it is trapped.Please note that many companies are in the same posisition. I am a forwarder, and have many different shipments on the vessel. One that stands out the most is a container of Antique wooden Furniture. The furniture is so valueable the client had them delivered to our France facilities by Armored Car.
I will press MSC to issue a statement, though the odds of thm doing so at my request are very slim. The most I can offer is to update here as soon as more information is available.

The Crews of M/V MSC Jasmine, M/V Ocean Delta, 4 other tugs & numerous salvage personnel now can take a break. The Docking of M/V MSC Sabrina - April 4 2008
M/V MSC Sabrina braved the Winter winds & waves of the North Pacific to deliver Canadian & U.S. demand for toilet seats, toys, computer speakers, wind shield wipers, cutting tools, tea kettles, plastic glasses -- and a host of other commoditities our society cannot live without.Ships such as M/V MSC Sabrina face danger at every step & stage of their transit.
This said, when M/V MSC Sabrina grounded, there were calls from cargo owners who expressed absolute outrage that their cargo might be delayed in delivery.
"is This legal?", one consignee asked. "How can they hold our cargo?", another Canadian importer queried.
Anyone who has viewed this photo feature for M/V MSC Sabrina -- above -- clearly understands that the nature has played a much greater role in meeting the delivery schedule than Mediterranean Shipping Company. A full fifty years into modern international shipping, one might think that Canadian & U.S. importers might have a slight clue as to how the system works -- and the dangers it entails.
The Logistics Chain Perhaps the most difficult concept for Canadian importers from M/V MSC Sabrina to understand -- is the posting of a General Average. This is a cost of the shipping venture shared by the cargo owners to defer the expense of saving the vessel. The payment of each cargo owner is calculated as a percentage of stated cargo value. The expense can usually only be posted through a London Broker in cash -- unless you have quality Marine Cargo Insurance.Container Availability - April 9 2008
More than 1,500 cargo containers which were on board the Mediterranean Shipping Company (MSC) M/V MSC Sabrina are now docked at the Port of Montreal.MSC is waiting on a Genral Average insurance claim it filed to recoup rescue costs accrued in the grounding last month, and while that request is processed companies such as Howar Equipment Inc. are forced to wait for their orders.
"I cannot sleep anymore," said Mariann Hauer, an office manager with the Ontario-based cable goods company, which had one container on the ship with US$110,000 of orders destined for American clients. "I've never experienced anything like this."
Hauer said she hasn't been able to get a straight answer from MSC about when her cargo will be released, which creates major problems for her clients, who are waiting on orders that have already been delayed by several weeks.
"How can they do that, holding goods which do not belong to them anymore?" Mariann Hauer said. She says her company's clients had to wait for their orders after M/V MSC Sabrina was stuck in the St. Lawrence's shallow waters near Trois-Rivières for almost a month.
Hauer said it's impossible to tell them when they'll get their goods, a reality that she said will damage her company's reputation.
Howar's New York City-based broker allegedly said she's never seen this kind of situation. But we see this process as customary, under the circumstances.
"They were only hired to get them from point A to point B," said the Customs Broker for Howar Equipment Inc. "If they weren't damaged, I don't know why they'd have to keep them," the Customs Broker allegedly told Mariann Hauer. [Note: This is shocking ignorance for a maritime professional.]
Editor Note -
Cargo Law was contacted by shipper Mariann Hauer of Howar Equipment Inc.As I told Mariann, the posting of a General Average Guarantee can be a nightmare for those shippers foolish enough not to have arranged Marine Cargo Insurance. Howar Equipment Inc. was required to post a US$125,000 General Average Guarantee to receive it's cargo valued at US$110,000. Fortunatley -- as I explained to Howar Equipment Inc. -- quality Marine Cargo Insurance will advance this expense.
Now Howar Equipment Inc. fully understands another reason why it was wise to insure it's ocean cargo. The Reason is Cargo Insurance.
Tragic as this event was -- it was a customary peril of international ocean shipping. As more companies venture into the world of international trade -- there must be appreciation of the fact that -- IT IS DANGEROUS OUT THERE. Moving product by sea is not the same as safe activity as sending a UPS parcel. For these reasons -- there are rules to be learned -- such as the requirement of quality Marine Cargo Insurance.
I have no doubts that those shippers with cargo aboard M/V MSC Sabrina who did not have Marine Cargo Insurance -- are still figuring out how to post the General Average Guarantee or if the investment is worth the expense.

The Cargo Letter appreciates the continuing efforts of these valued contributors. Thanks Pal For Your Contributions!
NOTE: Please Provide Us With Your Additional Information For This Loss.
EDITOR'S NOTE FOR SURVEYORS, ATTORNEYS & MARINE ADJUSTERS: The Internet edition effort of The Cargo Letter now celebrates it's 8th Year of Service -- making us quite senior in this segment of the industry. We once estimated container underway losses at about 1,500 per year. Lloyd's put that figure at about 10,000 earlier this year. Quite obviously, the reporting mechanism for these massive losses is not supported by the lines. News of these events is not posted to the maritime community. Our new project is to call upon you -- those handling the claims -- to let us know of each container loss at sea-- in confidentiality. Many of you survey on behalf of cargo interests with no need for confidentiality. Others work for the lines & need to be protected. As a respected Int'l publication, The Cargo Letter enjoys full press privileges & cannot be forced to disclose our sources of information. No successful attempt has ever been made. If a personal notation for your report is desired -- each contributor will be given a "hot link" to your company Website in each & every report. Please take moment & report your "overside" containers to us. If you do not wish attribution, your entry will be "anonymous." This will will benefit our industry -- for obvious reasons! McD
