Bulk carrier ran aground

Thu Jan 01 20:26:07 CET 2026 Timsen

While carrying a cargo of grain, the "Algoma Guardian" ran aground on the St. Lawrence River west of Montreal on Oct 19, 2010. The ship began floating out of the main shipping channel toward the Quebec municipality of Saint-Zotique, east of the Quebec-Ontario border just after 1:30 p.m. The vessel has been towed away by tug boats, to clear the way for vessels picking up and transporting goods along the river. It was pulled to a nearby spot and anchored while divers conduct an investigation to determine the source of the problem. The freighter was traveling east along the river when it ran into trouble. It was not yet clear how long it will take before the ship is operational again. St. Lawrence Seaway Management Corp. and Transport Canada are investigating.

Bulkcarrier threatened to run aground due to engine trouble

Thu Jan 01 20:23:59 CET 2026 Timsen

The 'Algoma Guardian', enroute from Baie Comeau to Port Weller, had an unexpected stop at the Brockville Yacht Club on the morning of Dec 31. A blackout or engine shutdown was suspected to be behind the incident. The bulkcarrir stopped on the edge of the 10 meter- curve. The offshore tug 'Vincent Massey' (IMO: 9199622) was nearby; but no assistance was needed. The 'Algoma Guardian' backed up into the channel, drifted sideways a little then turned her bow eastward and continued its voyage. On Jan 1, 2026, the ship was moored in pos. 44° 38' N 075° 36' W.

Engine shutdown after smoke development

Wed Oct 23 18:00:35 CEST 2024 Timsen

Plumes of black smoke were coming from the 'Algoma Guardian' on the afternoon of Oct 19, which was navigating the St. Lawrence River downriver around 5 p.m., en route from Port Weller to Quebec. The bulk carrier stopped and shut down the engine near Round Island putting an end to the smoke. On the morning of Oct 20, the ship was back up and sailing near Waddington.
