Fireworks Among ‘Dangerous Goods’ In Containers That Fell Overboard Off Hawaii’s Coast
A massive freighter that lost more than 1,800 containers off the coast of Hawaii last week including 64 “containing dangerous goods” has docked in Japan. Reading time: 2 minutes.
Fireworks were among the “dangerous goods” in hundreds of containers that fell off a cargo ship in stormy seas off the coast of Hawaii, the shipping company said Monday.
Last week the Coast Guard warned local mariners to be mindful of floating containers that could pose potential hazards to ships navigating the area. “We are continuing to liaise with the JRCC in Honolulu, who has advised that there have not been sightings of any containers as yet,” ONE’s statement said.
