Information coming to Blueoceana Company indicates that an as-yet unnamed worker was struck by a shoreside crane’s clamshell bucket this afternoon, while aboard a bulk cargo vessel docked at the Keystone Properties Terminal near the Talleyrand section of Jacksonville, Florida.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We further understand that the local Sheriff’s Office, the U.S. Coast Guard and OSHA have each begun investigations into this accident.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the fullness of time, we expect further information to develop and when it does it will appear at this page as an update. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the meantime, we are able to provide a link to a short video clip made available through local television stations and a link to local media coverage:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

UPDATE: 03 January 8:00 PM EST<\/strong>: Blueoceana Company has learned that the vessel at issue is M\/V MAPLE<\/strong> (See<\/em> photo below), which has called regularly at this particular marine terminal in the past.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

UPDATE: 12 May 5:30 PM EST<\/strong>: After communicating today with a worker familiar with this facility, we’re made to understand that the fatally injured worker was in fact a crew member. Apparently, in a brief exercise meant to view the progress of work within the hold at issue, this crew member peered through a weather deck opening between the folded hatch cover and the hatch’s coaming, whereupon he was struck about the head and neck by the cycling clam shell bucket. We include a photograph taken recently aboard the same ship (See<\/em> below) which simulates the location and the manner in which the crew member was presenting himself at such location.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
