On September 29, 2018, the fully cellular containership Saxonia, measuring 35,824 gross tons and launched in 2003, encountered significant operational issues while departing Fraser Surrey Dock in Vancouver, British Columbia. Under the guidance of a pilot, the vessel experienced problems with its main engine exhaust valve at around 2015 hours PDT, positioning it at latitude 49°11.377'N and longitude 122°54.713'W. Compounding the situation, the Saxonia suffered a total electrical failure due to a malfunction in its No. 3 auxiliary engine. Thankfully, tugs were brought in to assist with the re-positioning of the ship back alongside the berth. After resolving these issues, the Saxonia successfully departed the port again on September 30 at 8:15 p.m., setting sail towards Seattle.
