The fire is out.

They are saying that a welding spark fell down into the hold where diesel fumes had accumulated.

The fire spread to the diesel tanks. The report is that all the power and communication cables in the hold are destroyed.

The ship will likely get repaired, at least to provide in-port pilot training.

Why couldn’t it be totally repaired? Could the heat have warped the ship out of shape?

I’ll be looking on Craigslist for it, probably can get a good deal if I don’t ask for the title.
