Wonder if those wall shores on the vessel in the foreground went in before or after the Petrel incident.

If the Petrel had them, it is unlikely she would have blown over, 'if' the wind was the cause, looks like a parbuckling job for someone

I used to be on the big Ferry South Steyne when she went into drydock, one time someone made a mistake with the measurements, and the blocks were in the wrong position, divers had to go down and realine them all, was stuck aboard until midnight, still had to travel home to the Blue Mountains, got home at 2am, my wife was frantic.

There seems to be some movement on righting the vessel, this on the news tonight.
