Love watching this like this too, fascinating. That's why I am trying to find episodes of the Nat Geo show Salvage Code Red, particularly the one detailing the Napoli.

Just can't see to get the episodes, the company that made Salvage Code Red has gone into liquidation, I managed to find the producer (quite a helpful chap actually) but ultimately he could only direct me to Nat Geo who won't even answer my emails. Quite happy to buy the episodes but seems to be impossible!

Baltic Ace similar to the removal of the Tricolor in the English channel a few years ago, fortunately no-one died on board the Tricolor though.

Quite amazing how they do this.

Wonder if they fancy doing the same with the Richard Montgomery lying off Sheerness!!!

(Might make a bit of a bang..)
