It's too bad. I was in St. John 's for three days. I could have taken pictures.

OC has been in the drydock in South Boston since 9-December.

Is this normal for the type of repair she needed, or has
something else arisen?

Curious,
Gary

I think parts had to be flown in from Germany from reports I have read.

OC is leaving the drydock in South Boston.

Unfortunately, the visibility on the harborcam is poor,
due to solar glare.

OC is back to work!

See Jean Hemond's great pic of her in Quebec Harbor from January 31, 2014.

Thats ok Snocky. I was going to try and catch her in the narrows but she left when I couldn't make it down. Next time.
