Yesterday we went out for some more heli-blogging. Target was the Tricolor shipwreck. Everone in Europe is awaiting pictures of the 3500 luxury cars that are to be salvaged in the coming weeks. Operations haven't completely started yet. A new salvage "island" was being towed out to the wreck as we got to the scene, but no cars just yet. The most frigtehning part of our pictorial is the amount of oil that is seeping from the ship. We saw kilometers of dreck, and only 1 ship on cleanup duty while no less than 6 are on salvage duty. How about that for fucked up priorities? I expect the cars to start coming up in about a week, and I'll be there on the scene. Pictures copyright 2003 silicon polder b.v.
