With Nicola, Vicky, two near misses and the weather quashing initial thoughts of slinging strops around to pull her upright, the Tricolor will instead be cut into nine sections, hoisted onto a heavy lift ship and shipped to Zeebrugge, where she'll be scrapped. There the story might have ended. But the single screw, 49 792grt Pure Car Tuck Carrier has been pushed deeper into the seabed; she's laden with some 3000 top-of the-range Volvos, Saabs and BMWs; she's structurally unsafe, further complicating the salvage; and two inaccessible 30m~3-capacity settling tanks could be full of diesel oil. The raising of the Tricolor is not an easy task.
