    That the Ship's Engineer was unable to escape his cabin is stark testimony to the suddenness and rapidity of the post collision capsize!
    Compared to open seas, a ship's crew may have felt a degree of safety on this canal route.
    The Salvage Crew were not just righting and removing a wreck, they were preserving a Marine Accident Investigation Board/Branch accident scene, where the control settings on the Bridge would have been of paramount importance to Accident Investigators, and possibly Insurance Investigators too.
    The retrieval of the lost Crewman would be of upmost importance, in order for the Coroner to establish the cause of death, and for the body to be released to the family.
    Whilst the engineering, technical, environmental and meteorological aspects of the wreck righting and retrieval are surely daunting, so too must be the task of locating, inspecting, detailing and removing the bodies of lost Crewmen.
    Ultimately, it is to be hoped that if there are to be lessons learned from disasters such as these, then those lessons, incorporated into Operating Practice and Procedures, may prevent future events and loss of life and vessels!
    Thank you for producing and publishing this video, which gives a fascinating insight into the world of Marine Salvage.

      @@deconteesawyer5758 In Section 2 of the Accident Report, referred to as the Summary, it clearly states in paragraph 3 that, "the vessel capsized rapidly".
      The Chief Engineer had been seen on deck after the collision but had reentered the vessel after which it rapidly capsized, trapping and drowning him in the cabin his body was discovered in when the wreck had been salvaged after 2 weeks.

      @@felixcat9318 "Rapidly capsizing" is subjective and was not the cause of the man's death. You get all butthurt when called out for speculating without looking into the facts and then want to degenerate and vilify ? Good luck with that.
      Edit: And another thing I must call you out on is calling it an accident. You refer to the the casualty report as an "accident report". Bullshit. It was not an accident report. An accident is something that cannot be predicted and cannot be prevented. The collision was in all likelihood preventable as was the death. The engineer chose his demise, sealed his fate. The proximal cause of his death was his action of going into the cabins from a point of safety on the deck while the vessel was capsizing. The guy was certainly not acting rationally, if it took a half hour he may still not have found his way out.

      Considering the murkey water and limited visibility, there is little wonder why no video of the underwater work. I'd be shocked if visibility was as much as 10 to 12 inches. Much more likely it was 8 inches or less, judging by how well you could see the diver's legs when they were swimming on the surface.

    • @BrettonFerguson
      @BrettonFerguson 4 года назад +2

      I'd guess in a calm canal like this with only one hole would be cheaper than on a reef or shore in an ocean with waves and storms and multiple holes or a broken keel or the ship in two pieces. The weight of the ship probably also affects cost. Oil leaks increase costs because they have to stop the oil leaking and clean up any oil leaked. The M/V Rena on a New Zealand reef was one of the most expensive. An article from 2013 estimated it would cost $135 million. A 2015 article said it cost $317 million. The most expensive ever was the Concordia which cost $1 Billion. A cargo ship in the English Channel cost $40 Million. Small sailing boats cost a lot less. One I found cost $40,000.

    • @cf6282
      @cf6282 4 года назад +1

      Welding underwater is not easy by any standards. Considering the damage to the boat, the hull may have been warped. Using these bolts may be easier to attach the plate and even out any dents or bulges. I never heard of such a device by the way. But I do see the merit of it. Good question by the way. Hope they respond to your question. I am an engineer but not naval.

      @@cf6282 any underwater work is difficult.
      I just wonder when these salvage teams will start using personal submarines like the Deep Worker. A 1 or 2 person sub that can go 1000 metres deep without pressurizing the air. Good for 6 hours of work on a charge. With less risk of a diver getting the bends it makes the jobs that bit safer.
      Nuytco makes a number of subs, all can operate without being pressurized to the same depth.

    • @jaquigreenlees
      @jaquigreenlees 4 года назад

      The method used would be faster than welding in a submerged environment. Trying to get and keep an arc going to weld under water is a slow process, gas welding doesn't work.

      Yes , because they had to deal with him for years. "Some of the crew members on the deck had after the collision seen the chief engineer sitting on a bollard. One of them asked him why he was not wearing his emergency suit and the chief engineer had answered back, that he could swim and that he would stay where he was." quote from the official investigative report.
      No explanation could be given that would lead a reasonable or prudent person to go back into the cabins with the ship listing badly and rapidly sinking.
