<\/div>\n

word has reached me that the PCTC Asian Emperor currently at pier 27 has sustained significant damage to her one of her decks. This is likely the result of cargo breaking loose and shifting.<\/p>\n

Asian Emperor arrived on the 15th<\/p>\n

UPDATE:
\nSEVERAL large John Deer farm tractors (completely demolished), massive John Deer Combine machines, Black Mercedes cargo vans. The equipment (farm machinery) was nearly unrecognizable its was damaged so bad. Given the vessel is bow forward they are probably trying to obstruct the damaged equipment from view.<\/p>\n

\n
\nUPDATE: Asian Emperor moved to Autoport just prior to noon on Tuesday the 18th. This revealed some of the Carnage.<\/p>\n

People with BMW’s on order are frantically trying to find out if their car was trashed. I Have been emailed by a Woman from Montreal, And their are Forum Posts Here <\/a>and Here <\/a>of people looking to discover the fate of their vehicles.<\/p>\n

CTV News at 6 also offered this video yesterday.<\/p>\n

\n<\/object><\/div>\n

\nIts Posible this damage is the result of Parametric Rolling. Kenebec Captain (Who Sails PCTC’s for a day job) describes taking a parametric roll in a post<\/a>, speculating that lashings would fail if it continued.<\/p>\n

UPDATE  02\/19: Asian Emperor is back at Pier 30, after unloading undamaged vehicles at Autoport. Unknown if Damaged cars will not come off, but the stern ramp is visible.<\/p>\n

\n<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

UPDATE 02\/21:  Ship is still at pier 30.From a BMW Dealer in the Comments, this apparently came from a bmw official in NJ. <\/p>\n

\nThere were 1,200 vehicles on the ship and approximately 30 were damaged.
\n If the damage represents 3% or greater BMW will total the vehicle.
\n at this point new owners will need to re-order or dealers can try to perform a locate for the client, In the US BMW NA will provide some sort of a goo will discount on the vehicle if you are one the unlucky ones <\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\nI have also heard that BMW is trying to coordinate a payload transfer, which,
\nessentially, allows for vehicles that have not been damaged to be moved
\naboard the Turandot. The problem with this is that the space is limited
\nto the amount of vehicles being unloaded in Halifax. So, there will
\nstill be some that will have to remain on the Asian Emperor until it is
\nfixed, or until the next ship arrives to port.<\/p>\n

Turandot Arrived and Departed on the 20th. Don Juan  is due on the 25th. Will be interesting to see if Asian Emperor moves back to autoport before then.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
