NEAH BAY — The 712-foot container ship Horizon Tacoma was expected to reach the Port of Tacoma by 9 p.m. Wednesday, under tow by Neah Bay’s emergency response tug, the Hunter, and its companion vessel, the Garth Foss, after smoke was noticed late Tuesday night in the disabled vessel’s engine room.
No fires, spills or injuries were reported, Curt Hart, spokesman for the state Department of Ecology, said Wednesday afternoon.
"They still had full use of their thrusters and navigation," he said.
The crew saw smoke coming from the No. 1 engine’s turbocharger, shut the engine down as a precaution and notified the Coast Guard, after which the state-funded Hunter made its first full emergency response of 2010 and its 11th in more than 10 years, Hart said.
