MV Wisdom, which was being towed to Alang in Gujarat - PTI.
Salvage efforts to tow away cargo ship MV Wisdom, grounded near Juhu beach, were suspended on Sunday for a fortnight due to operational constraints, a Directorate General of Shipping official said.
The vessel went adrift on June 11 from its tug that was towing it from Colombo to Alang in Gujarat, where it was to be broken as scrap. It is now grounded around five km on the south-west of Mumbai's Juhu beach.
"Due to engine trouble in the lead tug there were operational constraints in taking up salvage efforts today (Sunday)," the official said.
They will have to wait for another fortnight for the next spring tide comes in; in the meanwhile, lets hope that no spillage of any kind takes place from the ship that could contaminate the Mumbai Beach Waters!
