On 08 September 2022, the bulk carrier "ALGOMA TRANSPORT" reported having made bottom contact while transiting the Detroit River off Amherstburg, ON.
On 14 July 2021, the bulk carrier "ALGOMA TRANSPORT" reported sustaining a starboard main engine failure in the St. Lawrence Seaway off Sainte-Catherine, QC. Using its other engine, the vessel proceeded to Sainte-Catherine, QC to assess the problem and carry out repairs.
On 09 November 2020, the self-discharging bulk carrier "ALGOMA TRANSPORT", under the conduct of a pilot, reported a problem with its starboard anchor winch while manoeuvring to anchor off Lanoraie, QC.
On 31 May 2019, the bulk carrier "ALGOMA TRANSPORT" reported a propulsion machinery failure on Lake Huron and had to stop in Goderich, ON, for repairs.
On 28 April 2019, the bulk carrier "ALGOMA TRANSPORT" reported a propulsion machinery failure on arrival at the Seaway lock #3 off Beauharnois, QC. The crew carried out repairs and the vessel resumed its voyage.
On 13 May 2016, the bulk carrier "ALGOMA TRANSPORT" sustained a black-out on Lake Saint-Pierre 3 nautical miles SE of Yamachiche, QC. The vessel subsequently touched bottom before anchoring for damage assessment and repairs to its electrical plant.
On 20 June 2015, the bulk carrier "ALGOMA TRANSPORT" sustained a propulsion failure while on Lake Huron 15 nautical miles E of Harbor Beach, MI, USA due to a problem with its propeller shaft, while on Lake Huron 15 nautical miles E of Harbor Beach, MI, USA.
On 27 April 2015, the bulk carrier "ALGOMA TRANSPORT" sustained a main engine failure off Sainte-Pétronille, QC. The vessel proceeded to the nearest anchorage; the crew carried out the repairs and the vessel resumed its voyage.

Build Series
Sister hulls share a yard, segment, build year (±1) and deadweight (±3%) — the cleanest comparables for valuation. Derived in-house from our fleet register; coverage is limited to hulls carrying a recorded builder, so a series may be incomplete.
Composite Risk
Multiple adverse factors, or a hard ship-specific signal, lift this hull above the fleet norm.
A coverage-weighted blend of the 2 components we could read for this hull — the weights renormalise over only the components present, so a thin read is never inflated and a hull is never credited a “safe 0” for a signal it has no row for. This headline is flagged low-confidence (a thin or structural-only read) and should not be treated as a verdict. Higher means riskier. Derived in-house from government-open port-State-control, flag, sanctions and our own vessel data; weight it by the coverage above.
Estimated
Bulker · summer draught 7 m · 41.8 t per cm immersion
Estimate only — modelled from deadweight (deadweight regression) using a first-principles hydrostatic model, not measured hydrostatic tables. The design draught it is anchored to is unreliable across the fleet.
density DWT/GT=1.46 is consistent with declared bulker
Declared type is consistent with the class implied by the vessel’s size signals. Inferred via our shared size-based classifier.
