A video has emerged of another gantry crane shipment gone wrong. The brand new Shang De Wu Yi Shan was damaged last week when two gantry cranes shifted and fell over the side of the ship off the Spanish coastline
The cargo shift happened during stormy conditions with most of the two ZPMC-built cranes sinking into the sea off the port of A Coruna. Some of the falling debris caused damage to the recently delivered ship’s hull and deck. The Chinese-flagged heavylift ship remains at anchorage in Spain.
Splash reported in October on another troubled ZPMC shipment when a ship accidentally knocked down an existing quay crane at Keelung Port in Taiwan while docking to unload another pair of new cranes.
