Tuesday, during the vigil, the spoils pipe of at the Rudee Inlet dredge had separated.

In this sequence, you can see

  • the separated pipe, then
  • the crew tie up to the two pieces of pipe, then
  • manoeuver them into a position where they could work with them, then
  • reconnect them.

The last picture shows the reconnected joint, which is still leaking. Other joints were leaking too, so I reckon losing some water isn’t that big an issue so long as the spoils are disposed of.

Finally, this is website is a hobby.
