Title: 'Asia Symphony' recovery
Post by: Celestialsphere on February 14, 2012, 06:20:55 am

Hello All,

Here's a link to a web page (in Japanese but with interesting pictures) of the refloating of the 6175 dwt freighter Asia Symphony which was lifted ashore in the terrible Japanese tsunami. That's one monster floating crane !
