MANITOWOC, WI – A 200-foot Manitowoc-built crane is making its way to a naval base in Hawaii. Big Blue P-82 sailed out of the Manitowoc Harbor Friday morning en route to Navy Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam on the island of Oahu. The crane was built by Konecranes and Broadwind Heavy Fabrications. The crane will make the 7,600-7,800 nautical mile journey from the Manitowoc Harbor through the St. Lawrence Seaway and down the East Coast of the U.S. before going through the Panama Canal to the island of Oahu.
