OOCL Hong Kong
OOCL Hong Kong Spent an hour in the inner harbour yesterday afternoon, presumably due to an issue with bridge clearances. OOCL Vessels usually pass with 2-3m (6-9′) of clearance, so a particularly high tide could delay passage. Checking the Tide Tables for yesterday, the Tide was ebbing (declining), and an hour delay would only be about 20cm. (8″).
Ships are often held if there is a potential Jumper on the bridge. This also would result in traffic Being stopped.
ZIM Savannah
Zim Savannah Tied up at Pier 35. Since Zim Ships usually tie up at Pier 41/42 i rarely get pictures. Pier 41 is Occupied By K-Lines Tsing Ma Bridge, and 42 is Blocked by construction.
