Re: Loss of MV Empress

Great news!

I am happy to report that the Empress has been saved!!
Apparently after beaching against rocks and taking a hammering an extra large swell actually picked her up and dumped her in slightly deeper water behind the rocks, where they managed to anchor, still being bounced around rocks. Bent rudders and props, huge dents etc, but NO leakage. Lots of water damage though.
Vidar reports that she is repairable!
Great news
