Ore carrier refloated

Clyde grounding

 

   The Norwegian ore carrier LIVANITA, which went aground near the Elderslie repair yard of Barclay, Curle & Co., Scotstoun, eight days ago, was refloated yesterday with the help of four tugs.

   About 5,000 tons of her cargo of 23,000 tons of ore was unloaded into coasters before refloating was attempted and, as she had been holed at the bow when she grounded, compressed air was pumped into her forward tanks to remove the water.

   The LIVANITA was towed about half a mile up-river to King George V Dock and a partial examination of the damage to her bows was carried out by a diver at high tide early this morning.

   She is to be taken up to General Terminus Quay to discharge the remaining 18,000 tons  of ore at high tide this afternoon.
