On 2/15/1998 , the vessel SEASPAN FALCON (Official Number 816602) was involved in a bottom contact in ADMIRALTY POINT, B.C.,.

The vessel, with 2 persons on board, experienced the incident while engaged in regular operations. Fortunately, the ship was able to continue its voyage. No injuries or fatalities were reported, and there was pollution.

This incident was officially recorded by Transport Canada on 2/20/1998 . Weather at the time was reported as rain with winds from the E at 0.00 knots.

The "PACIFIC DOLPHIN", under the conduct of a British Columbia Coast Pilot and assisted by two tugs, was moving from anchorage "L" in Indian Arm to a terminal in Port Moody, B.C. As the vessel attempted to round Admiralty Point, the tug "SEASPAN FALCON", which was on the vessel's port bow, was pushed towards the shore and grounded briefly. Shortly afterwards the "PACIFIC DOLPHIN" also made contact with the bottom. The pilot regained control of the "PACIFIC DOLPHIN" and, without further incident, berthed the vessel port side to Pacific Coast Terminal No. 2 wharf in Port Moody. The "PACIFIC DOLPHIN" and the "SEASPAN FALCON" each sustained damage to the bottom shell plating. No pollution was observed.
