Depends a lot of the ship’s construction. They might have a lot of rooms under board that can be sealed individually, so in this picture it might have stopped sinking, and is fine. Then you can re-float it and get the punctures fixed at a drydock somewhere. It would still cost a shitload, supposing the thing isn’t totalled, of course, which is the hidden variable here. If it’s not sinked, but fixing it is not feasible, then it’s as good as sinked, it’s only good for scrap.
just read the article, yeah apparently they hit the engine room, who knows what state it’s in, shit’s fucked, my money’s on scrap too; hope it was insured! lmao

Also the engine room was flooded, so I think the only yard this vessel will ever see again is a shipbreaking yard.
