Collision ships to Germany

Cruise ship Norwegian Dream and container vessel Ever Decent have both docked in Germany following their widely publicised collision in the English Channel.

After emergency repairs were carried out at Dover by A&P, Norwegian Dream proceeded to Lloyd Werft where the damaged bow is being cut away and replaced with a new prefabricated section. The ship is due to leave the yard on October 4 after a 40-day repair programme, which includes scheduled drydocking survey work brought forward from next year.

Ever Decent docked at Blohm+Voss for temporary repairs after discharging most of its cargo in Zeebrugge. The vessel is now sailing, partially loaded and on line service, to Mitsubishi?s Kobe yard where full repair work will take place. It is due to arrive at Kobe on October 20.
