Hi Willem,

Nice series. Have they found what caused the ship to capsize?

Nice series Willem,

will they restore the ship to sailing condition, or is it a total loss and
will they scrap it?

Regards,

Jeroen

As far as I know, yes.
The company decided to restore the vessel when they start the salvage, if
this is still so today I don't know, but I believe they will do it.

I don't know about this, the crew had al the time to abandon the ship, it
took some time before he capsized. I don't believe it's the loading alone,
there must be a other reason, or a combination of events.

Very good site indeed. Today they have some Chilean Naval pictures of the
sinking of the MV Explorer in Antartica and rescue of the survivors.
