Crew Reviews, Ratings & Info for Toronto

On the night of December 26, 2012, the bulk carrier 'Toronto' and the cargo ship 'Salome' (IMO: 9515412) faced a precarious situation while being unloaded at the Dundalk Marine Terminal in Baltimore. Strong gusts of wind caused the vessels to shift away from their dock, resulting in snapped mooring lines and damage to a nearby crane. The incident unfolded shortly before 7:30 p.m., while the 'Toronto' was in the process of unloading heavy machinery, farm equipment, and various vehicles. As the winds intensified, one of the ships made contact with the crane due to the ramp being deployed during loading operations. Fortunately, port tugs quickly intervened, securing both ships back to their designated berths within approximately one hour. An investigation has been initiated to assess the circumstances surrounding the incident, which was exacerbated by stormy weather conditions at the time.
