Flag lowering on EML Lembit means that Estonian Maritime Museum has started to make their plans true. Personally I was very afraid she will sunk before drydocking, restoration and opening as a museum.
EML Lembit will be dragged onto land in tonight, between 00:30 to morning.
That is because sea must be more or less waveless, especially dangerous are sharp backwash waves of Tallinn-Helsinki fast ferries. High spot will be around sunrise.
Everyone in Tallinn this night can go watch this show at Lennusadam (Seaplane Harbour, future place of Maritime Museum). No fee, but dress warmly, it is rather cold before sunrise here now in Estonia
Maritime Museum gave some promise to broadcast this process by internet. Stay tuned, when so, I will let you know.
Sadly I can't go myself, but some friends of mine promised to take photographs.
