Take all the TVs and plastic crap out out the containers and fill them with Pigeons.

Werner Herzog up to his old tricks again I see.

Some great bullshit this morning from the canal authority. Water is flowing underneath, it may float soon etc

It's getting increasingly messy in Mozambique generally.

I wonder why they didn't do that earlier.

I wonder why they didn't do that earlier.

Indeed ..

 

[magneze]

Tbf it's probably a bit more involved than just opening a gate or something.

 

[spitfire]

I'd seen that before but never noticed the ships name before. Excellent...

Mind you I have been looking at maps and I thought the canal was single way at the point the ship has beached.

I have too, and according to wikipedia, 'Although part of the length of the canal is paralleled by an older narrower channel which can still be used to bypass obstructions, this particular incident happened in a section of the canal with only one channel.'

Maybe the BBC made a mistake .. ?

 

[Badgers]

So I'm looking at a map. If a ship can't get through the suez canal it's got to go around the African continent right?

Did I already post this?

 

[cupid_stunt]

Maybe the BBC made a mistake .. ?

It had been reported by other outlets before them, I think we could be reading too much into 'Egypt has reopened the canal's older channel to divert some traffic until the grounded ship can move again', by assuming the diverted ships could continue on their journey, rather than just be moored there until they can, thus clearing space in the main channel.

"On Saturday about 20,000 tonnes of sand was dredged, and 14 tugboats pulled and pushed the Ever Given in order to try to dislodge it.
Although strong tides and winds complicated efforts to free the ship, the tugboats managed to move it 30 degrees in two directions."

30 degrees movement. It’s still wedged on both sides. Maybe wedged deeper.

All the tat I recently bought on AliExpress depends on the salvage efforts going well.

It is hard to vision what this 30 degrees actually means..
