They've done well to save their ship thus far, that's certain. I think there is a part of every seafarer's soul that grieves a ship lost; the only thing greater than that is the loss of a shipmate. It is well they appear to have saved the ship; hopefully, then can soon see to the surviving shipmates.

All signs sound positive now so hopefully she'll be saved.

For those of you that are interested, theres now a live webcam of the ship, so you can watch salvage work taking place.
