Here’s a cool photo from the incident: [img][http://www.abc.net.au/reslib/200706/r149564\_530891.jpg](http://www.abc.net.au/reslib/200706/r149564_530891.jpg)" border=“0” width=“450” height=“257” /\> From the other photos it looks like at least one of anchors are still in the hawsepipe… wonder why they didn’t try to drop the second after the first one failed?? Any thoughts? ---
