sidari Posted May 31, 2014 #6251 Share Posted May 31, 2014 Unusual for Italians due to their supersticious number being i think 17 ! Recall a Deck 13 on Divina but no 17. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
papcx Posted May 31, 2014 #6252 Share Posted May 31, 2014 Unusual for Italians due to their supersticious number being i think 17 ! Recall a Deck 13 on Divina but no 17. Spot on. No superstition attached to 13. 17, however, in Roman numerals is XVII, which looks like the Latin "I have lived" or I am dead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bearded Engineer Posted May 31, 2014 #6254 Share Posted May 31, 2014 The tug Lukas has left Genoa with Giglio as her destination. My guess is that S18 is on the way back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
papcx Posted May 31, 2014 #6255 Share Posted May 31, 2014 But the Salvage team is international. Yes they are, but it's an Italian ship, in Italian water, so they probably went with local "tradition" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike.Minh Posted June 1, 2014 #6258 Share Posted June 1, 2014 Yesterday between around 3 and 5 pm - MV Lone or a very similar looking heavy lift vessel could be seen on site, working for about 2 hrs on the port side of CC. Look for the 31 May time lapse video here http://www.kielmonitor.de/kino.php?cam=concordia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look for the 31 May time lapse video here http://www.kielmonitor.de/kino.php?cam=concordia Mike, all I got looking at the link is the same frozen view I've had since yesterday. :( As I type this the Circolo webcam is giving the best view. The barge (Conquest ?) is towards the back of CC. Possibly preparing for the return of 18 or is it already back on site? Another barge has pulled next to the starboard forward side of CC. Not sure what is currently off the port side. http://www.isoladelgiglio.net/webcam.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ken711 Posted June 1, 2014 #6261 Share Posted June 1, 2014 Latest weekly report has a nice photo looking down on the starboard sponsons. I wonder if it was taken from the onboard tower crane. http://www.giglionews.it/wp-content/uploads/rel_sett_osservatorio010614.pdf?f0ba71 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SomeBeach Posted June 2, 2014 #6262 Share Posted June 2, 2014 Ken, that was a good picture. Back on site at 7 a.m. Giglio time is S18. It was located off the port side of CC. The usual webcam we use is still frozen in time. The Circolo webcam provided the view. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bearded Engineer Posted June 2, 2014 #6263 Share Posted June 2, 2014 I just saw Lukas pass through the view of the spaiggia-arenella web cam with an empty barge so S18 has been unloaded. I wish they would fix the panoramica cam. You just can't depend on free internet services any more;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At almost 8 a.m. in Giglio the cam shows the crane holding S18 in place. Yes, the cam is still working properly. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lightman1984 Posted June 5, 2014 #6268 Share Posted June 5, 2014 Seems S18 has been released from MB1 so I guess that's back on. Last week's report indicated S14 and S15 were next, and tug Mario B is in Livorno with destination Giglio according to vessel finder and expected to arrive tomorrow. I'd like to see more about the forward and aft sponsons. Hopefully they take some extra photos and do a little more in the website updates about those larger sponsons.

I wonder which sponson was sitting in Porto Santo Stefano all week with Garibaldo and where it is now. Garibaldo moved to Piombino a couple of days ago and is still there.

Garibaldo moved to Piombino a couple of days ago and is still there. I believe someone confirmed that as S4 from the Porto Santo Stefano webcam, but you're right, I was surprised they didn't install that one before moving MB1 aft to install S18. Lots of moving around. Guess they'll do 18, 14, 15 and come back forward and get 4, 3, 2, 1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I posted a link to the PSS webcam and said that the sponson shown was S4 but that was an assumption I made since they were working on S5 at the time and they had not yet brought S18 back. Mario B left Livorno 2 hours ago and is enroute to Giglio. It will be interesting to see if she has 1 or 2 sponsons in tow.

SomeBeach Posted June 6, 2014 #6272 Share Posted June 6, 2014 Continue speedily work of installation of caissons of removal project rigalleggiamento Costa Concordia by the waters of Isola del Giglio. With the completion – we read on the official website of the project – installation of the tank S 18 (formerly S13 which was due to return to Genoa for repairs) are now 9 caissons installed on total of 19 missing in vista del rigalleggiamento (15 on the starboard side, 4 on the left side to reach the total of 30 required). Titan Micoperi engineers have planned for the next few days to continue with the caisson S14 on the starboard side, as soon as you have obtained the necessary authorisations from the Observatory. Currently the time schedule is the goal of the rigalleggiamento and then the removal of the wreck by the end of July, prior authorisation by the competent authorities. In the beautiful photos of our collaborator Giuseppe Modesti, some details of the cells of rigalleggiamento. Some good pictures in the link. http://www.giglionews.it/2014/06/06/proseguono-spediti-i-lavori-di-rimozione-concordia/ From parbuckle website: http://www.theparbucklingproject.com/article/76/The_installation_of_the_sponsons_for_refloating_are_progressing_quickly_at_Giglio_Island Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bearded Engineer Posted June 6, 2014 #6273 Share Posted June 6, 2014 Mario B has arrived at the stern of Concordia with S14 and S15. This must mean that Garibaldo is holding S4 at Piombino Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luisrp Posted June 6, 2014 #6275 Share Posted June 6, 2014 (edited) Snooping around in Google Maps I found this. http://*******/maps/07ltg Those are Concordia's life boats. I don't know if they are still there or the date of this image. Edit: Ok so the board won't let me put the URL. Replace the stars with goo dot gl and you will get to the page.
