Thank you Jack it was a smooth operation all around. We have another video up of a smaller boat being recovered. It's equally satisfying to watch the team in action.
Pretty extreme method of cleaning the bilge! I also am surprised that no oil booms were deployed. It appears that there would have been a benefit to having air bags under her during the initial de-watering but I guess with the ability of that crane it didn't matter. That portable pump is a BOSS! I want one of those as my everyday bilge pump. Great job guys.

@@brinkee7674 Guess I missed that part, thanks for the info. Bummer though, but I suppose since it's old it's cheaper to buy a replacement vessel than repair it. Best Wishes & Blessings. Keith Noneya
Great job by the salvage crew! They made that look soooo easy! I hope the little boat can get back out there for the family that owns it or a new owner, if be and catch more fish.
She did during a particularly rough storm over a weekend. We think a window was damaged and she took on lots of excess water. This made her nose heavy and she hit the seabed hard.
A sad sight indeed seen a few like this over the years ,a mate of mine owned a boat that was built in 1850 or so it behaved more like a bloody submarine than a surface vessel, but we salvaged the bloody thing every time shit loads of work ,but we learnt a lot

@@SG-uh6sw You don't get it. Around here when a boat sinks they deploy an oil boom as soon as possible especially when salvaging the vessel. As I could see fuel was being released as the boat was raised. It's the environment that suffers and any good fishermen would not want to spoil their fishing grounds.
I know all of the engineering etc that goes into making those cranes,but it still amazes me that it could pick that up without tipping or the boom breaking
Hello, thank you for letting us watch this. If you look at the bow of the boat it was hit by something hard. I doubt it was a matter of it sunk on its own rather than its something ran it over and sunk it. If anybody has further information on this vessel I would love to know. Thank you from Virginia USA

We think that something broke a front window and in the heavy weather it started taking on water in the wheelhouse. Before eventually being too nose heavy and nose diving into the mud.

@@bigsmoke6189 And the Environ mentalists would have wanted it melted down anyway. You never know what's down there. And beneath it was the bloke in the bowler 'at. And that's that.
so how did it sink? through the pilot house window? Steel boats do not sink without holes in them if they have water tight bulkheads and hatches..so that leaves the pilot house i saw a lot of the glass was broken...??
We decided to scrap her. She was a fishing boat that no longer had a licence on her. So to be honest there was more value in the scrap. We had used her for a number of years to tow scrap boats around but this was one storm too many unfortunately.
Did she get pinned hung up or what mate ? Last boat that sunk on me was pinned too the quayside by a very strong Easterly and rolled in the hole we blew for her to sit in at low water. She took some work to get her back t sea. She’s now on Google earth laying in the boat graveyard at the head of the fisher fleet where we all Moore up 👍✌️🇬🇧
There’s substantial damage to the bow,which looks like the boat had a collision before it sank. The boat certainly looks like it could be repaired and put back to seaworthy condition.
The dent in the front was from a former collision with a buoy during a fishing trip. It happened a couple of years before the sinking. We think a damaged window letting in sea water made her nose heavy and she ultimately succumbed to the storm.
surprise that divers put the water pump in the fish hold while water level still was over the hatch. just wondering how long it took to them realize it does zero difference!
I believe that the hold will not be open to the water, so the pump will start being effective once they lifted the boat a little and kept it bow down. Anyway they got it out.
This one was scrapped. She was a fishing boat that had been used as a work boat. Her fishing license was already on another boat. As she was down for over a week the engine wasn't worth us saving. The good thing about metal boats is they are almost 100% recyclable.
well done....done a night dive in that harbour from the public slip...went a bit off and came up a bit too close to the RN side with a grumpy marine shouting F##k off lol
Not for us, we've used her for a number of years before she went down. Makes more sense for us to have her recycled now. She had a long life as a fishing boat and then as our work boat. Sadly a victim of one storm too many!
Can the boaters/other say what is the MOST common reason for a boat going down? Sure, it rained heavily and she went down. But THAT was not the cause--lots of boats get rained on and don't sink. If the boat is not SELF DRAINING, it can take on too much water--but that also required failure of the automatic bilge pumps, so again, what is the most likely CAUSE? Day in/day out, it is failure of one of the through hull fittings, when THAT happens, too much water comes in for ANY bilge pump to keep up. Boaters need to know what is going on in their boats below the deck--and many, maybe most, have no idea whatsoever.
It would cost far more than the boat's value to return her to service. All the electronics would need replacing and every single mechanical and electrical system would need complete rebuild or replacement. She's scrap.
I would have hosed it off while it was still in the water. Certainly had enough pump and water to go around. Now some poor schlup will have to do it on land.

What about the sea life that was killed or affected by the oil and gas that came out of it?
Looks easy when you have the right equipment.
Save the hull. Nice swiming pool 😊

A bit late to try to contain oil, when she's been on the bottom for 3 weeeks

Maybe a big wave blew out the window at the front, and each next wave a bit of water poured in, until it sunk.

Yeah but 9 times out of 10 it's cheaper to scrap a sunken boat and buy a new one than to refloat and refit it
How can a boat like this sink in a harbour? Was there something else wrong before the storm ?
You do know how strong the storm was right ?

what is the scrap salvage value of such a vessel in uk?
Amazing keep safety all the time
Chúc bạn có nhiều vi deo hay
How do the pumps come in handy if the boat is still semi submerged
Because they empty the compartments under the deck which are filled with water.
Why raise it ?
It’s a hazard to shipping mainly
So what happens to these boats after salvage, re they stripped to the hull and reused or totally stripped and scrapped?
This one was scrapped. She was a fishing boat that had been used as a work boat. Her fishing license was already on another boat. As she was down for over a week the engine wasn't worth us saving. The good thing about metal boats is they are almost 100% recyclable.

The boat didn't look that damaged. Maybe there something I missed. It looked like she could sail again with some TLC..
I don't think so. She'd been hard used, in my view. Looked like her days were done.

His next op's off Hamworthy.
probably hadn't had his crayon snack yet that day....
What is the cost of raising this one ?
Boats sink most often due to through-the-hull fittings failing.
What became of the guy that jumped overboard?
They left him to swim Hahahahahaha
Lost at sea...
God blessed yay God bless y'all 444 picking up the sinking boat if it wasn't for y'all they would still be down there
Off to the scrap yard or to be rebuilt over the next decade by a future You Tube star.
Sad to scrap this. Its in pritty good order stil..
Why would you start pumping when the hatch is still below water level .
Pumping different compartments out. Plus the crane was lifting as the pumping was going on.
Bom trabalho💪
I didn't understand the part where they were pumping out the boat and the hatch was still under water???
It was a separate compartment.
Not worth refitting?
Not for us, we've used her for a number of years before she went down. Makes more sense for us to have her recycled now. She had a long life as a fishing boat and then as our work boat. Sadly a victim of one storm too many!
Why dont they fit boats with airbags or liqiud foam as soon it takes water both can activate keeping water out
All that water being pumped out could have been directed at the mud on the decks to wash it away!
My thoughts too
Can the boaters/other say what is the MOST common reason for a boat going down? Sure, it rained heavily and she went down. But THAT was not the cause--lots of boats get rained on and don't sink. If the boat is not SELF DRAINING, it can take on too much water--but that also required failure of the automatic bilge pumps, so again, what is the most likely CAUSE? Day in/day out, it is failure of one of the through hull fittings, when THAT happens, too much water comes in for ANY bilge pump to keep up. Boaters need to know what is going on in their boats below the deck--and many, maybe most, have no idea whatsoever.
👍👍👍Молодцы что достали лодку!!!🤝🤝🤝
Will the boat get repaired or scraped?
Scrapped.
Why bother when the thing is just a boat anchor
They didn't really scrap that boat after that did they?
It would cost far more than the boat's value to return her to service. All the electronics would need replacing and every single mechanical and electrical system would need complete rebuild or replacement. She's scrap.
Do you know how long it had been down there?
It had been under for about a week during heavy storms at the time.
These Divers are swimming in Diesel Fuel!
I would have hosed it off while it was still in the water. Certainly had enough pump and water to go around. Now some poor schlup will have to do it on land.
The only guy working is the diver!
It's a tough gig holding the camera! But you're right the divers did the majority of this work. Rightly so as they charge enough!
