Two More Kapālama Container Terminal Cranes

On 19 October 2026, the last two of five electric Noell gantry cranes for Pasha Hawaii/Hawaii Stevedores arrived in Honolulu Harbor. They were transported from the Port of Los Angeles on Foss Maritime heavy-lift deck barge Foss 3612 (2014). Foss Maritime ocean-going tug Denise Foss (2016, IMO 9748576) once again towed the barge.

Foss Maritime harbor tugs Mikioi and Freedom assisted with the movement of Foss 3612 to Pier 20.
