Firstly i know there is a thread running already but it seems to be focusing on the events, route captain etc.

My curiousity is not intended to be disrespectful to those still unaccounted for but what will happen to it once the search has been stopped and all fluids drained off that pose a threat to the environment?

Will it be towed scrapped, sunk in deep water, could it even ever be repaired and refitted?

I dont know anything about boats but what you do with a massive boat like that stuck on the rocks has me curious.

Titanic only weighed 48,000 tonnes

But the Costa Concordia is a baby compared to this monster Allure of the Seas 225,000(GT)
