Costa Concordia Parbuckling – Live Updates Plus How to WATCH | gCaptain

Here’s the latest on the salvage of the Costa Concordia. They did manage to get the ship upright with no major problems. Now they still need to stabilize it and refloat it so they can tow it off to dismantle it. I thought at first they were going to try to fix the ship but now it looks like they’re just going to scrap it. Such a sad story…

Here’s the latest news on the Costa Concordia salvage operations. It looks like the parbuckling could be starting as early as tomorrow. That should be an interesting operation to watch. I expect it might go veeerry sloooowly til all the sudden the ship flips!

Maybe not, maybe they will have it all totally under control the whole time. I wish I was home so I could watch it in real time. 😉

I have been following the story of the Costa Concordia but not really paying THAT much attention. I get the best news on it from www.gcaptain.com they have been following it from the very beginning and doing a GREAT job of it. The forums where the mariners have been discussing it are a fantastic resource! If you’re at all interested in this incident or the salvage operations, you should take a look at their coverage. I just thought this post of theirs had some really good photos and explanations of the salvage operation. I’m wondering if they’re still hoping to be able to put the ship back into service and how in the world they can ever make it economically feasible given the costs of all this.
