The tour moves between the dry docks holding the Algowood and Hull 79. Hull 79 will be mated with the stern of the Louis R. Desmarais this Winter. At the back of the complex steel is moved into a building for processing. Once inside the steel is cut down to size. The pieces are assembled and welded.
Crews finish the assembly before the pieces are moved to the yard.
Like the piece of a giant puzzle, a finished piece of Hull 79 waits next to the dry dock. The upper portion of Hull 79's bow is assembled next to the dry dock. Lower portion of the bow in the dry dock. Construction of the hull from the other end of the dry dock. On behalf of all who attended I would like to thank everyone at Port Weller Dry Docks for allowing us to tour.
