There's a couple of large barges currently in Thai waters, Songkla and the gulf of Thailand. Drag one of these round, sling it up, and nice and slowly lift and pump....... Robert's your fathers brother........ Had a mate on the Concordia job, he's in Thailand, give him a bell........ not after six though........

he wasnt the captain then 555

Time to bid it out to foreign interests who can accomplish the task.

Nonsense, colonial attitude.

so got paid for a few months labor and then just walk away and cancel the contract?  I wish some of my job contracts were written that way!  zero accountability or responsibility.

Obviously someone’s relative that had just added to his job description-Boat and Ship Salvage-how hard could it be?

 

I have a sneaking suspicion someone important didn't WANT the Phoenix brought back up.
