Zhen Hua 21 reached Fremantle with ganty crane with a delay due to storm
On May 14, 2013, the "Zhen Hua 21" entered Freemantle Harbour to deliver the first of four enormous state-of the-art gantry cranes manufactured in Shanghai. The cranes had travelled almost 9250 km to their first stop in Western Australia, slowing down to about three knots as storms lashed Perth start of May. It had taken 180 tonnes of sea fastenings to hold the cranes in place for their 21-day journey, and it was to take some days to unload the 104 m-tall crane, which is 34 m wide and has an outreach of 50 m. Three of the cranes were bound for Sydney and Melbourne. The Fremantle crane, imported for use by Patrick Terminals, should be operational by the end of June. The new cranes would improve container handling at its ports around Australia. Report with photo: http://www.logisticsmagazine.com.au/news/crane-a-massive-lift-for-freemantle-port
