MSC Kleven swings off the berth and head out Felixstowe with 2 Svitzer tugs 310517
Ultra large MSC Kleven prepares to leave Felixstowe with the help of 2 Svitzer tugs.
The pilot requested 2 tugs for departure as she was head up on the berth and needed to swing off the berth. Svitzer Kent makes fast on aft while the Svitzer Deben makes fast forward. The passenger ferry Stena Hollandica as passing in the halted the departure for a little while.
As the Stena was almost level with MSC Kleven the pilot began the lift off from the berth by getting both tugs to pull 25% increasing to 50% then to minimum.
Once clear of the berth the pilot gets the Deben to ease up and move onto the starboard side to take the bow around. Deben in position builds up to 50% to swing the bow while the Kent takes the stern around.
Swung and coming ahead on the main engine the Deben is released from forward while the kent is held for a bit longer due to the ship's engine gradually increased rpm.
When the pilot thought the ship had a good rate of turn the Kent was released and the pilot navigated the ship to the Sunk Pilot Station where he disembarked onto a pilot launch.
