  • When a shipwreck the size of the Costa Concordia needs to be removed, experts turn to a process called parbuckling: rolling it underwater with hydraulics, then carefully towing it away.

      The only credit ill give him is making the decision to let the ship bank on the coast. If it sank further out in the water im positive more people would've died. Other than that he's a legendary coward indeed

    The ship is barely 60,000 mass tons. If you found a number saying its 180,000 tons it's probably its gross tonnage which used to be defined as 100 cubic feet, and later on Defined by a formula. Gross tonnage is a measurement of all internal enclosed volume in a ship which impacts the design, regulations, and fares to pay.
    On the other hand a Tonne is defined as a tun of wine containing 954 litres or 1016 kg which is called a Long ton nowadays.

      Their is no REAL weight for a ship. since other than its basic structure, the weight of cargo, additional furnishings, passengers, along with fuel and water carried are all variable.
      Therefore a formula based on internal usable volume was devised.

      The ship's actual weight is not the displacement. Displacement is a mesaure of how much water a ship's hull 'displaces'. The actual weight of the ship itself is the 'lightship' weight. Costa Concordia has a lightship weight of roughly 45,000 tons.

      @@havnt3782 what you said has nothing to do with my comment.
      I'm talking about the ship's size, you're going into talking about 'bailout options' and 'water heavier than air', when the they are transporting the ship along, not the water.
      The caissons are supporting the weight of the ship's hulk, the water simply dumps itself out as the caissons fill with air and lift the hulk up.

      More like, you're the one who needs to accept you're mixing what I said.
      The 'ruin' they say in the title to be 180,000t isn't, precisely what I said is a misleading title in relation to what the hulk itself weighs, NOT talking about water inside, and absolutely NOT talking about 'bailing out'.
      And look at yourself before trying to determine I'm a kid, I'm 32yrs old in front of your lack of understanding, even a 10yr old kid seems smarter than you to understand what I said...

      Actually the drop off to deep water was less than one width of the vessel as she rested and seasonal storms were able to shift her around on that narrow ledge.
      I wouldn't have called the depth an abyss exactly but I don't write dreck for Discovery/History Channel so your point was semi valid on the choice to say abyss.
