Dutch tug SEA BULLDOG (IMO 9712412) has come down from Vlissingen and, with tug TSM KERMOR from Ouistreham, presumably dealing with the four corralled hatch-covers and other debris.

Yesterday's work on the capsized BRITANNICA HAV:

Now BRITANNICA HAV's sister CELTICA HAV reported taking a list on Tuesday, when entering the River Neath for Briton Ferry (from Kiel Canal), and returned to Swansea Bay.  Yesterday escorted by tugs into Swansea port.

Hope such things don't come in threes.
