A very unique, and never attempted on a ship of this size, salvage plan has been developed to roll, then float this boat with welded-on caissons. All this done for less environmental impact and to salvage the boat in one piece before towing away to a drydock.

I wonder if the owners have unlimited towing insurance - hahaha!!!! ;-)

Probably Euro bail out money (half-smile). Nice plan.

And I thought they were going to fill it with ping pong balls!
