About Kathryn Spirit
The ship Kathryn Spirit was a 12,300 dwt open hatch bulk carrier built in 1967. She was registered in Canada and previously owned by Swedish and Norwegian interests as Holmsund and Menominee. In 2011 her intended demolition in Canada proved controversial and proposals were made for her to instead be broken up in Mexico. The intended Mexican contractor collapsed, and so she stayed beached. In December 2017, work was done to patch and seal the ship, and to decontaminate it before the beginning of dismantlement operation. Her demolition was completed in October 2018.
