The stricken capsized ship in the Solent has been clouted by one of it's tugs.

I should imagine it's very difficult maintaining position at sea in those strong winds.

Not a job I would want to do, those waters are well protected but they are also very busy shipping lanes.

I live about a mile from the coast where the tanker is off shore - incredible scenes

As an update, I drove past today. The ship is off the sandbank and although afloat is still listing severely.

Thanks for the update Bestcover, Welcome to our forum I would imagine if that ship is now floating but managed to sink in the shipping lanes it would cause havoc in the Solent.

Perhaps they could get some old scrap ships to attach to it as buoyancy aids and float them all off to the scrapyard.

What is going on? We seem to be having several maritime incidents - is it something in the water? ![[Big Laugh]](http://files.homepagemodules.de/b205004/a_19.gif){kind=small}
