Efforts to salvage Indonesian naval vessel grounded off Queensland, Australia hampered by stormy weather

August 25, 2007 

The 35-metre, tri-masted vessel was originally grounded on August 23 in stormy weather at Inskip Point, near Rainbow Beach. A salvage contractor has being brought in to rescue the stricken vessel, her hull is intact and it is believed the ship is in no imminent danger of breaking apart. 
However, the tall ship did drag its anchors and break its rudder and centreboard during the beaching. 
Australian Navy Commander Forbes Peters says that although salvage has been postponed until early next week, the vessel will be surveyed today by the salvage firm.
