Repairs in Dordrecht have commenced

On April 3, the 'H&S Wisdom' left Guiness again and headed to Rotterdam, where it arrived on April 4. On April 7 it shifted to Dordrecht and was docked at the Shipyard Kooiman Hoebee BV for permanent repairs of the grounding damage suffered.

Coaster refloated two weeks ahead of high tide

On March 15, 2025, at around 7 p.m. GMT; the 'H&S Wisdom' could be refloated after lightering was carried out by the Dutch salvage company Hebo Maritiemservice about two weeks earlier than expected, involvcing the 'Ella F' (IMO: 9813498) as lead tug. The ship had run aground outside the shipping lane at high tide on March 2. Cranes were used to remove a large quantity of the steel cargo from the vessel. The Humber Rescue was assisting with the transfer of surveyors to and from the ship since March 13. The H & M Wisdom' refloated without any intervention when the tide came in. She was towed into the port of Kingston upon Hull and berthed in the King George Dock at 9 p.m. UTC.

Hebo lightering grounded ship

Hebo has unloaded cargo from the 'H&S Wisdom' to lighten the ship. The maritime service provider from Zwartsluis has let a pontoon run aground next to the ship after mapping the bottom. The location has been chosen very precisely. The cargo of steel, 'about 700 tons', is transferred from the ship to the pontoon. Then there is a feeder barge that then brings the cargo to the port. ‘Hebo has been busy for two days now and the salvors expected to need another six days. The 'H&S Wisdom' sailed on the Humber on the evening of March 2, during one of the highest water levels of the year. As a result, it ended up in a place outside the shipping channel, where it will only come out at a comparable water level. That is not expected until the end of this month, Moreover, a lot depends on that attempt, because the next comparable high tide will take even longer, it could then take until October. By unloading the cargo, the chance of the ship being refloated at the end of the month is increased.
