The Algoma Equinox finally entered the Seaway today with Hamilton their next Port of call and destination with iron ore pellets to unload.

Today, Nov 20, early afternoon, Algoma Equinox is in the eastern end of the Seaway, heading upbound, with a destination of Hamilton. Must be fixed!

Equinox is due to enter Seaway upbound this morning for St. Lambert Lock.

Looks like today , Nov 18 the Equinox departed Sept Iles anchorage , did some dipsy doodles in the river and is headed back into Sept Iles , perhaps some kind of repairs have been done and required some sea trials , perhaps she is heading in to load ore , hope so .

Today, October 27, it looks like Algoma Equinox is sitting at other than a ship loading dock in Sept Isle.

Denny, as you'll see by the quote above, I saw via Marine Traffic, the Equinox apparently tied up at other than a loading dock in Sept Isle. I can't say whether it's been sailing around the Seaway, however, I suspect something might be wrong with it. It's currently anchored in Sept Isle in what appears to be an anchorage area. I've heard absolutely nothing for several weeks or even a month or two about the Equinox.

The Algoma Equinox has still yet to come back into then the Seaway this season thus far. They’ve made trips into the Seaway earlier this year but nothing recently or at the present time. Anyone have anything further on them or any news or updates to add?

Has anyone asked the Ship Junkies lady?

Algoma Equinox has moved back out to the anchorage in Sept Iles as of November 6th ,been in Sept Iles for over a month now , pretty expensive asset not to be hauling cargo , anyone heard anything about her predicament ?

The Algoma Equinox remains in Sept Isl, PQ , has been there for several weeks , any ideas or info as to why

I see on the Marine Traffic website that the Algoma Equinox finally arrived from anchorage in Sept-Isles, Quebec on October 10 in the evening. They arrived at the anchorage though in Sept-Isles, Quebec on September 18. That’s almost a month that they were at anchor then! Anyone know why they sat so long at anchor? Mechanical issues or repairs or just waiting for a clear dock to open up then? Any information is appreciated. Thank You.

Anyone know what is going on with them? They have been at Sept-Isles, Quebec and the anchorage their since late evening on September 18 and that is almost a month ago now already which is very unusual IMO at least to be there that long. Anyone that has any info or updates on them and their status it would be appreciated. Thank You.
