re: Eight damn ships at fairwell bouy off mobile

I work for an import lumber company in Mobile. We get our lumber in and unloaded here and New Orleans much quicker than Houston or the east and west coast. Occasionally cargo ships get backed up but normally Mobile gets you in and out pretty quick.
Customs causes us headaches occasionally when we have containers of CITES II species in our cans. I cut an $18,000 demurrage check last week because of the United States Customs clearing our lumber off the docks.

Thanks Earthquake, we probably know the sand people.
First of all, I know all about problems in California, and how docks works, we ain’t California Which was my point. One of the big stevedore company owners son player soccer with my son. They pay good money and don’t have labor issues, during covid there was rarely one that one or two probably 2-4 is normal.
Covid is exploding here maybe that’s it or something, but ships get unloaded fast here bitch, they don’t frick around. Maybe some jack leg inspector or some thing is being a dick. Ships dint wait around for weeks/months to unload. (it would be great for fishing as ling, kings etc stack under them in Summer but doesn’t happen )
