Ming Fortune – English Channel off the coast at Dieppe

A container ship (loaded with 1,200 containers, length: 210 m, displacement: 22,000 MT), whose engine room was flooded following a collision in the English Channel. The salvage operation took 17 days, and required lashing the deck containers securely into place, towing to Le Havre, completely unloading the cargo, repair of the breach and transfer to dry dock before being delivered back to its owners. (Abeille Languedoc + tugs from Les Abeilles Le Havre).
