Genoa Web Cam translation:
Follow live the arrival of Concordia from our webcam

Our webcam will tell you about the crucial phases of the arrival of the Costa Concordia to Voltri, new AGE scheduled for Sunday morning

All operations at the port of entry Voltri of Costa Concordia will be followed live from our webcam, that we in the crucial phase of rapprochement with zoom properly so as not to miss any detail of this historic operation.

The North wind blowing today on Genoa could slow slightly the last miles of the Costa Concordia to Genova Voltri, but weather forecasts remain more than positive for the approaching convoy the way end point.

The new ETA planned, since the Concord has slowed to 1 speed node and is not taking the direct route but is going off track of about twenty degrees, if it were to remain constant this velocity, is for 9.50 on Sunday morning. About 20 miles to go to be in sight ahead of Genoa, 24 to Voltri.

They seem to have moored it against the outer breakwater wall. Strange. Is that permanent, or is it to be moved in later.
That must be the worlds worst webcam!

Yes, it's good to see, that the Italian government has approved the towage of the Costa Concordia wreck to Genoa in mid to late July.After reaching Genoa, the ship will then be broken down by a consortium led by Italian engineering group Saipem and Genoa-based San Giorgio del Porto, which sources say could take a further two years and cost upwards of

05.08.2014 all structures seen are removed. Just the platforms under water needs work.

I will keep this information for just 1 day, then would be deleted, because conclusion works.

The stand jack towers were made to be removed ! I was there assisting in the erection of them.

Cheers, Dan.
