On 23 May 2023, the bulk carrier "CUYAHOGA", with 20 people on board, reported having sustained a fire in its engine room while proceeding on Lake Erie, ON. The fixed fire extinguishing system was activated. The vessel lost propulsion and dropped anchor north of Pelee Island, ON.
On 26 December 2022, the self-unloading bulk carrier "CUYAHOGA" reported that a crew member sustained a serious injury in the Detroit River off Windsor, ON. The crew member was medevacked to Windsor, ON for medical treatment.
On 21 June 2022, the bulk carrier "CUYAHOGA" reported having issues with one of its main generators on Lake Huron off Forestville, MI, USA. Once the vessel anchored and assessed damages, it proceeded to Sarnia, ON to effect repairs.
On 06 December 2021, the bulk carrier "CUYAHOGA" reported the failure of one of its diesel generators in the Detroit River off Windsor, ON. The vessel later berthed in Sarnia, ON where the crew carried out repairs and the vessel resumed its voyage.
On 11 November 2021, the bulk carrier "CUYAHOGA" reported being disabled with a main engine fuel oil pipe failure and needing to anchor in Lake Erie off Pelee Island, ON. Once anchored, the crew carried out repairs which allowed the vessel to resume its voyage.
On 07 July 2021, the bulk carrier "CUYAHOGA" reported sustaining a machinery failure, which caused a blackout, on Lake Huron off Point Edward, ON.

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 4.2 m · 25.4 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=1.50 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.
