Winter 2014 The Voyage of 'Ocean Harmony'

From the Wheelhouse

I am pleased to present our winter issue of the Quarterdeck featuring an exclusive look by bar pilot and Museum trustee Captain Thron Riggs at the log loading operation at the Port of Astoria from the perspective of a visiting Captain .

Water transport has been, and still remains, the least expensive means of moving cargo throughout the world. The United States is the world's largest trading nation, and 95% of the cargo tonnage that enters and leaves the United States comes and goes by ship, much of it on the Columbia River. Yet except in places like Astoria, shipping is nearly invisible to most Americans.

Since the development of modem bulk and container cargo ships the nature of ships, shipping, and ports has changed dramatically. No longer do we see great numbers of burly stevedores moving bundles of goods wrapped in burlap from the dock to a ship's hold. When it once took days or weeks to unload and load a ship, today container ships and bulk carriers can spend less than a day in port before moving on. Small ports like Astoria have been largely eclipsed by ports like Portland, Tacoma, Seattle and Vancouver. These transportation hubs have the capacity and machinery for the efficient transshipment of containers to and from the U S. But as Captain Thron Riggs points out, smaller ports like Astoria still have an important role to play in our nation's maritime trade, handling logs and other commodities produced by our region .

The Columbia River Maritime Museum has just finished one of its best years in its 51 year history with an attendance record of 102,073 paid visitors.

The Barbey Maritime Center was officially opened in January 2013. Volunteers pitched in to outfit the shop with benches and storage lockers and from May through November a wide variety of classes were offered to our members and general public. If you haven't seen the finished Center, please put it on your "to-do" list for 2014. It is well worth a visit.

Early in 2013 the Museum also took the bold step of acquiring the Astoria Builders Supply property directly across Marine Drive from the Museum. This will be converted into one of the finest conservation and collection storage facilities of any maritime museum in the country, providing for collections growth far into the future.

As you can see in the photo on the opposite page, we have already started to move our collection of historic watercraft into this space

As always we thank you for your support and hope to see you at the Museum soon . Here is to a great upcoming season!

The Voyage of Ocean Harmony

By Captain Thron Riggs, Columbia River Bar Pilot

It was a fine and routine July dawn when, from the pilot boat Columbia, I first spoke with Captain Ankur Agarwal. "Captain, please proceed to a position 5 miles west of the C R buoy and standby on this channel for further instructions." Routine but soon to be anything but.

In due time I was aboard a typical bulker in ballast, a ship type that is familiar to all us river watchers in Astoria.

The Ocean Harmony was arriving from Korea, to load logs in Astoria for China. On reaching the bridge I met Captain Agarwal, who was a bit on the young side for a ship's Master: he appeared to be in his mid thirties (he is 35). We had a pleasant Master-Pilot exchange and pru1.:ee<.lt:<l iu.

Ankur proved to be an engaging conversationalist, and we enjoyed a social aspect to the transit that is rare. Usually a pilot is, for whatever reason, not prone to discourse outside that required for getting the job done ... an occasional "How was

your crossing?" or "Where do you make your home?" might be all in the way of personal exchange he would offer. By the time we had finished tying up in Astoria, Ankur and I had established a relationship that we both felt was worth pursuing, and on taking my leave, I was happy but not surprised when he said "Please come back tomorrow for lunch." "Can I bring my wife?"

"Of course ... delighted" was his immediate and obviously genuine response.

Ankur graciously received Betsey and me in his cabin when we arrived for lunch the next day. In fine continental style (Ankur is Indian, which is to say South Asian British), he was quite handsome in his unifom1, and we visited for some time over a glass of wine before repairing for the meal. Along with family, politics, sociology and American culture, we talked a great deal about the ocean transport of logs. After lunch he showed us around his ship, explaining as we went, and Bet5

sey (always the educator) took plenty of pictures.

China, Korea and Japan account for almost all of the raw log exports from the Pacific Northwest. This trade runs hot and cold depending on market conditions, and our competitors for this business are, for the most part, New Zealand and Chile The Singapore flagged Ocean Harmony is owned by Indians and chartered (hired .. .often in increments of years but in this case on a voyage to voyage basis) by interests in the construction materials business. Specifically, "China Maritime Building Materials" has chartered the ship from "NYK Global Bulk," who is managing the ship for its owners "United Ocean Ship Management." Thus you have a ship owned by Indians and registered in Singapore, hired by Chinese from Japanese managers, and crewed with Indians . Don't ask who is the in-

surer, where the manning agency is based, where the mortgage originated, etc .it gets confusing fast. When loading on this coast she might find herself in Olympia, Port Angeles, Gruys Harbor, Coos Day or the Columbia River ( either Longview or Astoria). British Columbia and Alaska also supply substantial amounts of wood for the far East.

When a ship arrives at a loading port, the dock is stacked high with logs, often of different species . The actual moving of the prepared logs ( debarked and of a certain length) from the dock to the hold of the ship is the specific charge of the longshoremen: they operate all the equipment, both ashore and on the ship. A "supercargo" makes sure that the correct logs are efficiently available to the longshoremen as they move them onto the ship. The ship's people, primarily the mates under the supervision of the chief

mate, are responsible for the disposition of the stowage: they watch to ensure that the logs are correctly and efficiently placed and secured. They must also pay attention to the ship's stability, trim (leaning and squatting) and structural stresses throughout the loading.

After the ship's gear has been inspected by longshore representation and the holds approved, the loading can begin. Individual lifts are assembled into "bunks" from the stacks on the dock. A front loading "log stacker" capable of handling a full lift takes the logs from these bunks (or sometimes from a truck) and deposits them in bunks placed abreast each hatch, where slings are passed. The ship's crane then lifts the logs out of the bunk and swings it aboard the ship, and places it according to plan. Care must be taken to not exceed the capacity of the crane ... usually they are The

rated for about 25 tons. Usually one shift a day, consisting of several "gangs" ( one gang per hatch worked) works the ship, but in unusual circumstances loading can continue around the clock. hut this involves overtime and is not considered cost effective. It usually takes about a week to load a ship.

The ships, when loaded, are particularly vulnerable to a lack of stability. As shown, a loaded log ship has the cargo stacked high on the deck, and this could make a ship top heavy if not carefully considered when "planning the stow". This is a close calculation, made by the Chief Mate and approved by the Captam. The different characteristics of the wood to be loaded must be taken into consideration, along with the amount and location of consumables (fuel, water and stores), all with the goal of getting the maximum allowable cargo aboard (per loadline) 7

while maintaining sufficient stability for the voyage and acceptable stresses to the ships structure. Another important consideration is ensuring logical discharge: cargo for the first discharge port cannot be underneath cargo for the second or third port.

The deck cargo is carefully secured with robust lashings so that no matter how bad the weather encountered on the voyage (the North Pacific in the winter is no joke), the logs will stay put. This lashing is done by the longshoremen under the watchful eye of the Chief Mate. He does not supervise the actual lashing (the longshoremen work under the direction of a "walking boss"), but must make sure that it is accomplished as agreed beforehand. Thereafter, an important and constant duty for the ship's crew when underway is the taking up on the lashings as slack works into the stow. In bad weather, failure of the lashings leading to the deck cargo taking charge can be fatal to the ship and her crew.

On that happy note, let's return to Tl,e QuarterDeck Winter 2014

Captain Agarwal. After lunch, we agreed to meet again the next day for some sightseeing and shopping. We picked him and his Chief Mate up that next afternoon, and went to the Maritime Museum and Astoria Column. Then we went shopping ... they were interested in electronics, luggage, clothes and gifts for their wives. More than once Ankur thanked me for the attention, and I reminded him that I had been 27 years in merchant ships before becoming a pilot, had enjoyed on occasion, the hospitality of a new acquaintance in port, and was happy to be in a position to do the same for him.

A couple of days later, as his ship was nearing completion, we were back aboard for lunch. Ankur wanted to make sure we had some of the best from his galley, and we were treated to Chicken Biryani, which was indeed delicious. Having expressed a desire to see what the beach looked like in these parts, we took Ankur out to Sunset Beach, where he went on a long, solitary walk, ending at our house. After a comfortable, extended beer (seamen typically 11

are reluctant to return to their ships, no matter how congenial, when ashore), we took the good Captain back to his charge. It was a parting of new friends when we dropped him off at Pier 1. We promised to stay in touch.

We have stayed in touch. Ankur sent pictures and commentary during his passage to China. Once in China, he was relieved for a well earned vacation he had been 190 days on board the Ocean Harmony. Now that he is back home in the fold of his wife and children, we have continued to communicate. He has extended a standing invitation to us to visit him in India, and we hope to take him up on it. Friends for life ... and it all started with a uackly VHF "µlease pro<.:eeu tu a position "

The return trip of Ocean Harmony was documented through e-mails from Capt Agarwal. Here are some excerpts showing the return trip to deliver the load of logs to China.

Tue 7/30/2013 6:16 PM

Set Sail from Astoria

Mon, 8/5/2013 2:46 PM

We are passing "Unimak island" and weather is pretty good so far.

Thu 8/8/2013 2:22 PM

We are passing the Aleutian Islands and the weather has been foggy but the sea is great.

We shall be reaching China/ North Shanghai on 17th but our next port is still not confirmed.

Tue 8/13/2013 2:38 AM

Today we we are passing Japan.

It was indeed nice to see some landscape after long sailing.

Thu8/15/2013 5:12 PM

The sailing has been exceptionally fantastic as the "weather god" has been very kind to us, blessing us with smooth seas. We are going to reach "Lanshan/China" (Very close to Rizhao) on 18th Morning and then will stay at anchor for about 15 days as there is a lot of port congestion. We expect to be1ih in port on 2nd Sept and thereafter I shall hand over command and proceed to India for vacations.

Sat 8/24/2013 6:44 AM

At Lanshan we have nearly 40 Ships at anchorage and that's why we have been waiting for last 8 days and now we should be berthing on 1st Sept.

After discharging at Lanshan, our ship will come to Port Angeles to load logs for china.

Thu 8/29/2013 6:13 PM

We have repositioned ourselves to do a quarantine inspection and also to find a better phone signal. At the Quarantine inspection, they usually check for any Sick Person Onboard and also take a round in Galley and

Provision stores to check for any rodents/infestation. After the quarantine inspectors are satisfied, they issue us a clearance certificate without which we are not allowed to come inside the port.

We have been attacked by a millions of flies here at anchoragc Jccz .It's terrible

Fri 8/30/2013 3:10 PM

Finally we are berthing today at Lanshan after 2 weeks of long anchorage.

Sat 8/31/2013 7:56 PM

After 190 days at sea, it's finally time to touch land and I will travel from China on 3rd Sept to India for a vacation back home with family.

News and N ates

Museum Deputy Director, Dave Pearson, was recently elected as the new President for the Counc il of American Maritime Museums at their annual meeting in Beaufort, North Carolina. CAMM is an organization dedicated to preserving North America's maritime history. Presently there are 90 museums and institutions belonging to CAMM. Congratulations Dave!

The Education Department welcomes Christine Fleming as the Museum's new Field Educator. Christine hails from Minneapolis, Minnesota. With a BA in Art Education and a MA in Art History she brings a wide variety of skills to the department. Christine's background includes teaching art to kindergarten through sixth grade students and working at different types of museums in Minnesota and England. Look for Christine at the Museum's many hands-on programs during Oregon school vacations. Welcome aboard, Christine.

Museum Assistant Curator, Eileen Houchin was recently elected as the Secretary for the Registrars Committee Western Region. This committee collaborates with the Registrars Committee of the American Alliance of Museums in advocating for the profession of Registrars and Collections Managers across the western states. The committee organizes and hosts workshops and specialized training, as well as publishes resources and a quarterly newsletter Congratulations Eileen.

The Education Department was the recipient of $30,000 from The Quest for Truth Foundation This generous gift will allow the Museum to continue its free outreach program, Museum in the Schools, as well as hands-on programming throughout the year. Last year we served almost 5,000 students in 200 classrooms in northern Oregon and southwest Washington. Through the foundation's generous funding we can purchase replicas , materials such as a classroom set

of simple machines, and other hands-on items that provide unique learning activities for people of all ages at the Museum and in schools.

The Museum's Community Day was held on Sunday, December 1st. Wells Fargo generously donated $2,500 to underwrite free admission for the entire day. Quest for Truth Foundation was also a sponsor. In lieu of admission people were asked to donate nonperishable food or cash to the CCA Regional Food Bank.

The Education Department partnered with Astoria High School in providing activities that focused on earthquake and tsunami education. Science students led demonstrations and experiments that educated the public about plate tectonics and tsunami dangers in the North Coast region. Large earthquake and tsunami inundation maps for Clatsop County provided by Cascadia Earthscope Earthquake and Tsunami Education Programs were displayed for local citizens to examine more closely.

Georgia Pacific has generously sponsored over 200 second graders to see the Sharks 3D film before it ends The school kids love the chance to visit, thanks for your support!

The next 3D film to be shown in the Museum's Columbia Theatre is Seu Rex: Journey to a Prehistoric World The film takes viewers 200 million years back in time to the Mesozoic era for a wondrous adventure across the Triassic, Jurassic, and Cretaceous periods with larger-than-life underwater creatures. Amazingly fossil remnants of these creatures have been discovered in Oregon, including a plesiosaur found in 2004. Viewers will learn more about fascinating marine animals such as the Ophthalmosaurus, or "eye lizard." One of the advantages of being a CRMM member is free admission to the Museum and 3D theater. In addition to seeing the film, visitors to the Museum can examine a 4 foot-long life-size replica Mosasaurus skull on display.

Memorials

• It is with great sadness that we note the passing of longtime Museum volunteer, Bob Chopping

Bob was one of the very first plankowners, or original founders of the Museum. He was involved with the forming of the Maritime Museum, was part of the Lightship cruise from Seattle, and a dedicated friend and supporter of Museum founder and first Director Rolf Klep.

A former Mayor of Astoria, Bob was a true advocate for the Museum over the years. Bob led tours as a docent beginning in 1991. Bob always had a new joke to tell Museum staff when he came in. We will miss the twinkle in his eye and sense of humor.

• The last issue of the QuarterDeck featured Astoria Marine Construction Company. The Museum, friends, and customers mourn the passing of Don Fastabend, owner of the company. Don was a legend among regional shipyard owners and a true friend of the Museum.

• We were saddened by the passing of CRMM volunteer Doug Simmons

Always willing to help out, Doug volunteered in the Store and on the Lightship Columbia. His fun loving enthusiasm, laughter, and stories will be missed.

• We are sad to note Thomas Vaughan , the longtime executive director of the Oregon Historical Society, has passed away.

Tom was a true statesmen and a pivotal force in preserving Oregon's history. He will be missed.
