Turbine Offloading From The Barge Complete- Pic From Fred Bodin

Fred writes-

One of the three wind turbine blades is lowered down onto the parking lot at Cruiseport Gloucester. By the time I finished my dinner at the Seaport Grill, they had all been moved and the Chem Caribe was cleared off. I was told that the barge had to leave tomorrow, because the dock was reserved for another vessel. So all that needs to be done at Cruiseport is haul the remaining cylindrical tower sections and the blades to the erection site in Blackburn Industrial Park.

The Naked Blades From Fred Bodin

At Cruiseport Gloucester, almost everything is off the barge, except for three 160 foot long wind turbine blades. In the foreground are conical tower sections.

The blades will be offloaded later today or tomorrow. Trucking them up to Blackburn Industrial Park will be quite a sight to see.

Preparing the Crane to Offload the Turbine

Appling multiple  TEN TON Counter Weights to the crane base to be able to lift off the Turbines off the barge scheduled for Monday.  Workers indicated that the barge will be offloaded, first from one side and then must go back out to turn around to offload the other side.
