Summary

Description
English: Caleta Cifuncho Bay, Chile. Following the grounding on the rocky coast of Chile, 12 September 2000, USS La Moure County (LST-1194) underwent emergency repairs in Cifuncho Bay, to make her seaworthy for the 700 mile tow to Talcahuano, Chile. After getting underway October 28th, she arrived at Talcahuano on the 31st, under tow by the Chilean icebreaker Oscar Viel Toro. This was her final port, as repairs to her severely damaged hull and machinery were judged to be uneconomical. She is seen here at anchor in Cifuncho Bay, where she lay from September 12th to October 28th.
