The USCG issued a press release to inform that investigators and inspectors responded to a container vessel which lost propulsion near Berth 35 in Oakland, Calif.,on Friday January 31, 2014.
The Coast Guard was notified of a container ship that lost propulsion while mooring at berth in Oakland. The ship deployed its anchor and two tugboats assisted the ship into the pier.
The ship was not over the Bay Area Rapid Transit tubes when the anchor was deployed, but due to the proximity, the Coast Guard notified BART personnel as a precautionary measure.
The cause of the vessel’s loss of propulsion remains under investigation.
