Unload times can very greatly for a footer depending on where the cargo is unloaded.

The average footer can unload it's entire cargo directly onto the ground in 8 hours.

The average footer can unload it's entire cargo into the hopper in 31 hours.

Any combination of the two will yeild any amount of time inbetween.

Any delays can extend the time a ship is at the dock.

I would have to guess somewhere between 10-12 hours average
time to unload iron ore at Zug Island. Although, I have seen a few
shipments that have been unloaded longer than that though.

Thanks, Do you by chance know how long it would take a 1000 footer to unload once it gets to Zug Island?

Roughly 29 hours

I think about 24 to 26 hours

How long does it take a 1000 footer to get from the Soo to Zug Island.
