A fishing vessel sits in Resolve Marine's Dutch Harbor dry dock facility.

Dutch Harbor’s only drydock has partially sunk.

The dock lost power and submerged while lowering for a vessel lift on Feb. 26, according to a statement from Resolve Marine, an international marine salvage company with a drydock and shipyard facility in Unalaska.

While the dock is meant to be submerged, it remained underwater when power was cut.

According to the statement, all crews evacuated safely and Resolve is evaluating what went wrong.

Resolve is working with internal experts to help local teams get the dock afloat again.

Hailing from Southwest Washington, Maggie moved to Unalaska in 2019. She's dabbled in independent print journalism in Oregon and completed her Master of Arts in English Studies at Western Washington University — where she also taught Rhetoric and Composition courses.
