To receive our NEWSLETTER click here Aplri 15, 2005 THE HUDSON AND THE ALIDA GORTHON AT VERREAULT During the first week of March, the VERREAULT dry dock was occupied by the CANADIAN COAST GUARD Offshore Research & Survey vessel, C.C.G.S. Hudson. The Hudson was in for it's special survey, with work required ranging from mechanical, steelwork and blasting and painting below the waterline. The dry-docking marked the second by the Hudson over the past eight month period, following an extensive high pressure hydro-blasting and paint job on all exterior surfaces above the waterline in the summer. Joining the Hudson in dry dock some days later for an emergency dry-docking, was the GORTHON LINES Forest Product Carrier, Alida Gorthon. Work required to the Alida Gorthon included the repair of a badly twisted rudder stock. Taking advantage of the time in dry-dock, GORTHON LINES also decided to have the intermediate dry-docking survey requirements completed by VERREAULT as well. Both vessels departed the dry dock earlier this week. With a number of other vessels lined up over the next several weeks and months, 2005 is shaping up to be an extremely busy year for VERREAULT.
