TSHD Fairway back in business

In Singapore the Boskalis TSHD FAIRWAY entered the drydock for the final time last week in preparation for her departure to commence her first project. The FAIRWAY was at the shipyard in Singapore for many months to be re-activated the large TSHD was hit March, 8th, 2007, around 14h00 local time, port side midships by MSC Joanna whilst operating in the access channel to Tianjin port, China. W.D. Fairway was holed, listed severely over port side, and stayed locked in with MSC Joanna for 1.5 days. The "Fairway" was intentionally grounded on a sandbank to stabilize the ship. WD Fairway was one of the largest hopperdredgers in the world. But it's a nutshell compared with the massive 9200 TEU, 321 meter MSC Joanna. Nobody of the crewmembers was injured.
