  • MUA sues over WA conspiracy
    The Maritime Union of Australia is sharpening its battle tactics on the western waterfront, mounting a conspiracy case in the Federal Court against the Geraldton Port Authority, former WA Transport Minister Eric Charlton and present state Transport Minister Murray Criddle.
    Documents lodged in the Federal Court for the MUA on Tuesday seek an injunction to prevent the GPA from privatising its workforce on 31 December.
    Geraldton's reform program will see it license stevedoring, effectively ending its role of providing stevedoring labor.
    In a prepared statement the MUA said the Federal Court action would be modelled on the successful court action against Patrick Stevedores.
  • Deadweight Devil a first for Hobart's Incat
    Incat Australia launched its largest wave-piercing catamaran from the Coverdale building hall at its Hobart yard on Saturday.
    A spokeswoman for the company said the launch of the 96-metre, $70 million Devil Cat was on the smoothest in recent times -- a particularly pleasing result given the reduced margins for error involved in launching vessels of that size from Incat's drydock.
    With a displacement of about 870 tonnes and a deadweight capacity of 800 tonnes, the new vessel is almost capable of carrying its own weight -- an achievement which Incat believes is a world first in vehicle-passenger ferry design.
  • MIIU mulls carrier grounding
    The Maritime Incident Investigation Unit is thinking of conducting an official investigation into the grounding of a Panama-flagged woodchip carrier on a sandbank in the Tamar River near Launceston on Saturday evening.
    However, given that the 50,000 DWT vessel Crimson Venus was successfully freed by tugs on Sunday and embarked on her return voyage to Japan early on Monday morning after passing a Class NK inspection, the MIIU may decide not to pursue the matter.
    According to the Launceston Port Corporation's chief executive Craig Faulkner, the incident occurred as the Crimson Venus left the port's No 6 berth at 6pm on Saturday.
    "Basically the vessel was being taken off our No 6 berth after it has been loaded with woodchips, and it was caught by the wind and tide and found its way onto a sandbar," Mr Faulkner said.
  • SCT runs into new terminal
    AUSTRALIA'S first private interstate freight train operator Specialized Container Transport has begun its thrice-weekly Melbourne-Perth trains to its new $18 million rail terminal at Forrestfield in Perth.

  • Skilled Maritime cruises into Sydney
    Skilled Maritime Services has made a small foray into the port of Sydney in the area of baggage handling for visiting cruise ships.
    SMS manager Ken Drake, described the event as "a bit of a first", with the activity previously the sole domain of the Marine Porters Association, which is affiliated to the Maritime Union of Australia.
    Mr Drake said: "It's all been negotiated with the unions -- there's nothing underhand about it."
    Mr Drake said Skilled performed their first job last Saturday, on the NYK vessel, Crystal Harmony.
    He said the deal was on a "job by job" basis, but SMS was looking for more work in the area.

  • Sea Containers Earnings Up 35%
