    Looking at the ships blueprint and geographical maps of the canal itself, the hull is buried far deeper than we can see.
    Dredging risks a capsize, which will make this worse, and using tugboats risks breaking the hull, which will also make it worse.
    Smit Salvage, the company that handles the salvage of the Costa Concordia are working on it. They have a great track record, but they've never had a time crunch like this before.
    There's also fibre-optic cables running down the canal. Will be an interesting few days.

      @Driftwannabe 10 its not about having tons of people to get it out, it dug itself in the mud, so they need to free it first so that it can float by itself. Pulling a ship whilst its stuck can severly damage the hull and can also result in water leaking through. Its easier said sitting down than actually doing it from the live prescriptive. Additionally, there are many procedures and safety considerations that need to be considered in case something goes wrong. The ship is no joke, literally a tower.

      Dude it took 10 years to construct and the political might and industrial clout of two global superpowers in a time when industrial marvels like this weren't bogged down by beurocratic red tape, health & safety legislation or ecological concerns. A construction endeavour like this and the Panama canal would never be attempted again.

      Was absolutely done on purpose. One of two reasons as follows: 1) It's a known major child and immigrant trafficking route. There is a huge global crackdown going on right now and has been for a while about this. It could be that, but more likely 2) globalists shutting the world economy down further like with the "pandemic", to further acheive their goals. The mainstream media will not report correctly if either of the above reasons are true, and will of course offer their own made up story about it.

    Engineers solution.
    1.Use the method of hydromeanization- from two opposite sides of the ship from the water side (wash away using dredgers).2.Then,from the same sides (from the water side), secure the powerful cables (give an effort of hundreds of thousands of tons) and turn the ship around.With more force of to pull (more force) in the direction,where the ship ran on aground less.Instead of bulldozers,can be use the piles and a winch.With respectful to you.

    The episode will help promote Russia's Northern Route. I wonder if an additional thought has occurred to the Russians and that is to build a canal from Sokol _eastern_ Sokol, there are two, to Cherskiy. The Kolyma river flows about 3/4 of that distance. Using hat river would significantly assist is a canal construction and although the river is frozen for most of the year and at points is shallow (though mainly deep) and there are also islands, the idea is, at least to me, interesting. Any country that can build a rail and road bridge across the Kerch straits can build anything. The Chinese could be asked to participate. Such a route would significantly shorten the distance and effort from Eastern production centers such as in China to the Northern Route. It would be a gargantuan engineering effort but if any people would be up to it, it would be Russians and Chinese (India might also participate as it would fit nicely into their LT economic plans).

    Resolution!!! You need to raise the boat while supporting the haul, I get it! Raise it by 1-2 inches by use of heavy duty airbags on each side of boat, while creating haul support. You will have rope go under the boat, 6 feet apart. 300 airbags on each side of the boat. (600x15k pounds lifted=9 million pound lift). Then, get few jet F-16 engines pushing air against the side of the boat (front) boat, while 2 jet engines pull the boat (on the back). 2-3 ships on each end if canals, pushing water towards the boat that is stuck, which will create small tsunami wave from each side. Then as it all is coming together, sequenced explosive to really cause that water to focus on the stuck boat, with a back pressure wave effect, you got “ air, water giving back on what it did, reversal effect”! I bet it would work!!! (Last option, release/remove the anchor completely from the boat to reduce weight and have other boats tow on it. Simple, cheap and effective. Start with airbags and water pressure increase. Call it, job well done! You are welcome!!!
