#SolentSalvage – Hoegh Osaka, the vehicle transporter ship that stranded in the Solent, has according to salvage teams earlier today, a window of up to 48 hours to ready the vessel and be moved.

The 51,000 tonnes vessel which underwent pumping in recent days, at Alpha Anchorage between Lee-on-the-Solent and Cowes, had been listing at 52 degrees but is now at 25 degrees.

Salvors need it to be at five degrees before it can be towed back to port.

If the list is not reduced enough, the weather and tide conditions would not be right to start towing until Sunday. For more, click the BBC News report HERE.
