Quite an interesting documentary. As a Maltese ex-shipyard worker I enjoyed every minute of it. Congratulations to all the men employed on this massive job!
Excellent job Gentlemen. That’s a tremendous amount of work, in lousy conditions, being done under the watchful eye of environmentalist and other pains in the ass. It would appear you all handled it professionally and got it done right. My hats off to you all. Well done.
Time to change your thinking, Roger. Climate change is a pain in the ass, not environmentalists. Environmentalists are the good guys. They’re trying to save your grandchildren’s butts. You want the Cornish Riviera covered with Heavy Fuel Oil? Nah! You DGAF about killing seabirds, seals, fish? Of course you do. And you don’t want to leave those grandkids a virtually uninhabitable world, either, do you? So do yourself a favour, get with the 21st. century and shift that attitude. Peace, fellow human.
I guess keeping "the PITA's & environmentalists" away & allowing all that lumber ruin the shoreline & drift into busy shipping lanes to hit yet another ship in a huge wave & piercing it is a big fat nothing too? The diesel, oil & multiple chemicals on that tanker are TOXIC to humans, animals, fish AND wildlife & shorelines. All of their all their offspring are then toxic too-if they even live! You sound old, pigheaded & stubborn & don't seem to know why INSURANCE is required on these vessels or what it covers!
@@q.e.d.9112 A lot of environmentalists are just lobbyists for corporations and NGOs who've invested in renewables. Their constant doom+mongering is just silly and false. I believe the world is moving as fast as possible towards green energy, but it's never enough for the climate alarmists. If we go any faster it will be to the detriment of the economy, there will be energy shortages as renewables simply aren't advanced enough to power the world yet. I notice it's always these wealthy upper class types who shame everyone into change, but it's the poor working class who will feel the effects of rapidly banning cheap fossil fuels.
@Tom_Emard= The average deadweight capacity of the world merchant fleet is now around 20’000 tons: The 6’000 tons of the Kodyma make it a relatively small vessel. This is not to say that salvage operations are less dangerous, but the size of the tugs (& more generally of the equipment needed) for the salvage is smaller. These tugs are more readily available locally. For companies like Wijsmuller Salvage or Smit, the salvage of a ship like Kodyma is a relatively routine operation, typical of the tasks and risks involved! Salvage is an enthralling but risky business ; hats off to the salvage crews. -- •
Thank you for this programme, a warning to all who go to, the sea in ships. As a sailor and marine artist, painter I know the Cornish coast well and have sailed on St Austell Bay many times. I've seen for myself some of the unpleasant surprises the Cornish seas can throw up particularly in heavy weather. Even the best prepared vessels can get into difficulties. The sea is no place for the unwary, less so for uneducated. The old hymn, "For those in peril on the sea" is as valid today as when first written.
An interesting insight into the salvage business. I remember some of that timber being washed up on the beach near Hastings. It certainly travelled some distances!
That beach full of wood, reminds me of the summer I worked as a junior ranger on Lake Superior. Mile and a half long beach, jammed full of pulp logs from two broken booms that spring. Gotta say, I had muscles on my muscles after humping the logs to the road, then stacking them and finally cutting them up for firewood. It was a pretty place after we got done clearing it all.
I like that you told the story a bit more in this video, please go in to a bit more detail about the causes in future videos, and/or link us the accident investigation report. I have read the MAIB report of this case and it was very interesting, the engineering crews efforts certainly deserve to be known.
I was planning on doing domestic stuff this morning. Instead I too have read the MAIB report and a very interesting read it is. As a retired seafarer I sometimes wonder how I would have managed such a situation. It's good to know that there was no loss of life or risk pollution from the incident, well done Svitzer.
Heartly congradulation for salvage team of koodima ship came to level position sir thanku very much have a nice day god bless u the team iam alex india goa
Wow i have photos of this ship! On the visit, I saw a RN helicopter and some tug boats around the vessel. I left to return home and wondered why the traffic was so slow. It turned out that someone had already started the clean up operation with a truck full of wood!
Just hovering a helicopter in zero wind is one of the most technically challenging things a human could do. Requires dexterity to have hands and feet working each in of the 3 dimentions independently. I gained a true appreciation watching people trying to explain and teach the controls absolutely nuts.
Interestingly enough, the local 'big box' home improvement/hardware stores suffered a mysterious stagnation in lumber sales that lasted the better part of 3 months. Even more mysterious is that while the lumber sales dwindled to near nothing, their sales of nails, screws, hand and power tools, and sundry other construction hardware went through the roof...hitting all time highs! Another business that suffered was the storage shed business. For some reason, their sales dried up to near nothing as well. To this day, no one knows of an explanation for this phenomenon.
Just after the end of ww2 we in Gt.Yarmouth were told there would be no oranges for Christmas but the North Sea decided different a ship was sunk with thousands of boxes of oranges my father filled the bath up with oranges greengrocers couldn't give oranges away happy days
Mystery of Mysteries. I think the best explanation is that the fairies caused it. "...when the impossible has been eliminated, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth". S. Holmes.
I lived a few years on the German island "Sylt". In storms ships whole deckloads of lumber from lost. Shortly thereafter, there was always a huge building boom on the island to notice. Everywhere were heard saws and hammers. Everywhere there were suddenly new garden sheds, fences and roofs. I think it used to be earlier in the 18th and 19th century on all coasts that ships with false fire beacons was shown the wrong way to loot the wrecks. I think that would cause problems today ;-) But even today, is flotsam free, if the owner waives. No shipping company, no customer and no insurance ever has apply for ownership rights. Winning back wood on 100 km of beach is probably more expensive than the value of the wood. That's why they prefer to pay it and the "beach pirates" are happy.
@Frank Heuvelman We have everything, and if we wanted your shit hole we would have it. The earth is round not flat and religion, all of it is fucking bullshit.
all these people deserve a pay raise and a thank you. They are smart as fuck, I could never do something like that. Thank yall from the USA for what you do.
The marine insurers were very happy a replacement ship wasn't the eventual outcome. This salvage operation must have easily run to over £120,000 which is cheaper than replacing the boat.
It seems like Brupeg is getting its soul now as the crew comes together. Awesome to see the new blood of Carlos to add to the project. Damo, may I say you have a beautiful singing voice, may I also say it has an equally torturous path out. My friend you area pakeha, not Māori so you are not born with the same level of natural talent….lmao
I'd recommend reading Farley Mowat's, The Grey Seas Under (1958). I first read it in 1977 and many times throughout the years. The book is a profile in the courage of the men who served aboard an ocean-going salvage tug, Foundation Franklin, circa 1930-1948. A real hair-raiser and an enthralling story which will have you feeling the ocean spray.
@@raymondleggs5508 It was quite an experience for me. Me, I get seasick in a rowboat 🚣♂️ fishing for flounder in the bay. What lives those crewmembers of the Foundation Franklin led!
Guy's, this stuff is great, I didn't know, I would enjoy this so much. The people that work on these things are very professional. It is really interesting. I enjoy the water. Thank you , keep them coming.
Everyone is banging on about what a fine documentary this is but it's not a documentary, it's a marketing video that the salvage company sends out to potential future clients. And their tug, stationed off the stern, wasn't there for the good of mankind it was there to stop other people boarding the vessel and laying claim to it.

Errrr, Plymouth is in DEVON! Tregantle Fort is in Cornwall! We remember this incident. Thanks to looters, the Police reckoned there would be a number of deckings appearing in gardens that didn't previously have them. Wood in salt water, not a very good decking material it was said!

Oddly enough, when a ship carrying bananas went down just under Fort Bovisand, the opposite side of Plymouth Sound, there wasn't a sudden slump in banana sales in Plymouth. However there was a smell of putrid bananas over the area for several days!
I was the captain of that ship and I'm happy to read all the kind words in this thread. I went on to make over 200 appearances for Swindon Town before becoming a woman.
A Russian seafarer turned into football player turned into (some sort of) woman… nice fantasy you got there buddy! What’s next for you, be the first person on Mars while writing classical musicals?
The same goes for British Rail, look at how it got privatized in 1994, now we are in a situation where it cost's cheaper to go to Greece by plane and back compared with a London - Manchester return, not to mention the massive Carbon footprint, Stephen Hawking has already suggested that with the way the planet is going there isn't going to to be much left for the future generation in so many words.. The industry is screwed with these private companies charging what they want, just heard that SW Trains infrastructure programming is now being managed in Hong Kong. I just hope the NHS don't get privatized.
Very interesting and I can understand timber deck cargo going overboard. I can’t understand how hatches came open. Most unusual and the last thing the crew would want!
I'm very surprised that the public is not down there gathering all that lumber I would have cleaned it all up for the wood that's a lot of boards now you could have built a house with what I seen laying there
It only takes 14 days! that is a great success. I assume that Svitzer should have done some patch work in those flooded holds and Engine room? If not, how can they get the buoyancy by pumping out the water?
It was renamed to "Red Stone" in July 2002, and "Timberstone" in January 2003. In March 2009, it was renamed to "Aldan". It appears to have been decommissioned/scrapped in 2018. The ship was originally built in 1989, so it was well near the end of the expected 20-30 year estimated life. Last reference I can find is 8/29/17 in Shanghai China www.shipspotting.com/gallery/photo.php?lid=2726577
TV producers sure can screw up a good premise, I like watching people work on things, cars motorcycles whatever, there's not one of those shows on TV I can sit through.
I have a question, I understand the seas were heavy but why didn't the drop both anchors to prevent grounding or at least keep her pointed out to sea if they dragged.
This is what a documentary should be. No obnoxious heart-pounding music, no made-up suspense or fake cliffhangers. It's great to see an informative video that respects it's viewers, thank you!

I went on to make over 200 appearances for Swindon Town before becoming a woman.
That's nice, did you have your first child yet?
A Russian seafarer turned into football player turned into (some sort of) woman… nice fantasy you got there buddy!
What’s next for you, be the first person on Mars while writing classical musicals?

She was repaired,took new names as Readstone,Timberstone,Aldan until 2016.Then she beached at Alang for scrap...
Really?
GB, once the premier master of the seas now has no maritime presence or industry!
All in one lifetime!
The same goes for aeroplanes, motorbikes and cars.
the same happened to Spain
The same goes for British Rail, look at how it got privatized in 1994, now we are in a situation where it cost's cheaper to go to Greece by plane and back compared with a London - Manchester return, not to mention the massive Carbon footprint, Stephen Hawking has already suggested that with the way the planet is going there isn't going to to be much left for the future generation in so many words.. The industry is screwed with these private companies charging what they want, just heard that SW Trains infrastructure programming is now being managed in Hong Kong. I just hope the NHS don't get privatized.
Luckily the Dutch are close.

Am a captain /coxswain,,, I love this video
Behmoth things r done with brain not brawn.great video
I love the 'Titanic' theme tune!
Very interesting and I can understand timber deck cargo going overboard.
I can’t understand how hatches came open. Most unusual and the last thing the crew would want!
Boyancy of the wood against the hatch.
Very Interesting, Thank You!
I'm very surprised that the public is not down there gathering all that lumber I would have cleaned it all up for the wood that's a lot of boards now you could have built a house with what I seen laying there
Kerjasama yg sangat bagus dan pengurusan yg berpengalaman syabas dan tahniah
SHE WAS DELIVERED TO HER NEW OWNERS!
Re-delivered to her owners. Blessings.
Good video, real drama no BS.
It only takes 14 days! that is a great success. I assume that Svitzer should have done some patch work in those flooded holds and Engine room? If not, how can they get the buoyancy by pumping out the water?
Well, there were no holes in the side. The water came in by the waves as some hatches had been ripped off and that's quite a big hole to patch.
Cool Documentary. Thanks for making it.
KODIMA this is Great & Strong name
Was the boat saved or scrapped? This must have cost a fortune.
It was renamed to "Red Stone" in July 2002, and "Timberstone" in January 2003. In March 2009, it was renamed to "Aldan". It appears to have been decommissioned/scrapped in 2018. The ship was originally built in 1989, so it was well near the end of the expected 20-30 year estimated life. Last reference I can find is 8/29/17 in Shanghai China www.shipspotting.com/gallery/photo.php?lid=2726577
Certainly much more informative and less time-wasting then that salvage code red show...
TV producers sure can screw up a good premise, I like watching people work on things, cars motorcycles whatever, there's not one of those shows on TV I can sit through.
I have a question, I understand the seas were heavy but why didn't the drop both anchors to prevent grounding or at least keep her pointed out to sea if they dragged.
Chance it would have sunk in the heavy seas if it didn't ground
Truly awesome job!
Extremely carsogenic down in that engine room with the heavy fuel oil 🤢😷🤕🤮
awesome work
