Options include floating the bow off, lifting the stern section or cutting her up where she lies.

..................Mr Stone said: "What has happened is unfortunate but it is just one of those things."

The salvage operation has so far cost in the region of £50m.............


It seems the owners are responsible for what happens next then. I wonder what the final insurance claim will be !

When you look at her, it's fairly obvious that the stern is out of alignment with the bow section, i.e. all forward of the bridge. Look at the photos on an earlier post.

And breaking up now, according to the TV news. Stern to be sunk, bow to be towed away?

And now there's more oil washing up on the beach. It's a beautiful place and such a shame to see this happening again.
