    even IF they re-float the ship
    will its hull hold out ?


    worst case, they re-float it it cracks and then sinks blocking the canal for as long as it takes to then remove all containers then re float it then tow it out.

    partially worst case
    absolute worst would be sunk (sinking into the canal floor taking on water)and on fire with fire raging & fuel leaking
