A “super yacht” using a damaged line to tow a tender is crazy. I had 6-7 backup lines on a 32 footer.

That SS Delphine: what a theme boat that would be. I can hear the "Gold Room" from "the Shining" now. And all dressed in twenties garb are the only allowed on board.

So what you are trying to say is that the salvage company knows more than YT commenters? WOW, who knew??? ;-) Kudos to the salvage company for standing up for themselves and educating keyboard warriors a bit. What amazes me is that these salvage companies keep getting hired for the jobs, rather than keyboard warriors. That's a great point about the boat being a write off before removal, and not the focus of the operation, or even a consideration of it. I had actually not thought of that. Shame on me, learn something new every day.

The salvers description was excellent. Thanks for sharing.

everyone is an expert on the internet

Thank you for providing the response from the towing company - ansd I do have to say, that I totally sympathize with them. Great Job, keep up the great work! Geoff Rohde

If it wasn’t junk prior, it certainly is now….$100k in outboards trashed, these guys are certainly incapable of any type salvage

I love the professionalism of the salvage company with sending in a statement and more photos and videos. They totally could have ignored the comments but to explain things and add more detail is good PR.

Look at the poly-tubes and padding on everything. Try setting all that up while waves are kicking your butts. Great job tow company!

OK, takes a different viewpoint once this info is released.

The catamaran is in the exact same place on Maui.

Anyone with the balls to salvage a ship from the rocks doesn't live on the level of the comments section. A weak know-it-all needs to keep to himself. Good luck. Thank you, and keep working.

Couch Captains with zero knowledge or experience...

I agree with ESysman. The "best" seafarers are sitting onshore.

Corruption in Government... No.... Never......

Reel wild ..Destroyed the engine nice job tow guy hackker. Prob be scrap now needed to towed straight off to min damage. Oh well not mine.

Everyone thinks they know what they’re talking about in comments but, never consider the expertise of the people actually doing the job! The damage to coral reefs and fuel contamination are much bigger issues than some billionaires toy! Kudos Husky Salvage for even trying to educate keyboard warriors! And the Yacht Report for always being an unbiased, honest and excellent source of good information!

l am 17 hours late but thank you eSysman for the update video of these Boats....... Old F-4 pilot Shoe🇺🇸

nothing but problems

Yea many (most) of the "ArmChair Captains" commenting on that video are probably over in videos about the terrible Airplane-Helicopter incident commenting on how the pilots "should have avoided crashing" or how the "ATC should have acted"... Some people are "just blessed like that"... They "just know", never any doubt, reflection or reservations , and all they need are a couple of seconds of video... taken by a mobile phone. I don't know whether to "laugh or cry" when i read their comments.

Thanks eSysman

People sitting on their couch in their underwear eating chips and drinking beer can always come up with a better idea!😂

The boat is already totalled, basically they were 9nly cleaning rubbish off the beach. Maybe someone will still make a boat of it but who knows what is the condition of the hull? Might already be broken, good job getting it off floating where it can then be towed away and be disposed of properly

Was the Delphine renamed USS DAUNTLESS during WW2 and served as Admiral King’s flagship often moored offf of the Naval War College? If so, many world leaders have been aboard this ship. Admiral King ran the American Navy during the war, and was very much responsible for getting the British and particularly Churchill to attack Germany in France as Churchill wanted to prolong the war and expend resources to regain the empire and colonies rather than defeat the Germans.

Easy to be an armchair quarterback.

I personally love your show. I’m a freelance yacht crew. I like to keep my finger on the pulse by watching your shows P.s that lady is psycho. Good for you to report the truth

The salvors did a nice comment on your original video. It explained the operation in great detail. After reading it, I just discounted all of the uninformed keyboard warriors who know so little. Thanks.

I do wonder how those outboards were retrieved. I couldn't figure out how they would get them out whole, all the bits and parts.

I've done salvage. Nearly drowned, nearly crushed my leg. Made fantastic money. I didn't question the salvage company's operation

I'm a KZbin viewer, I know everything, Trust Me.

Very interesting insight into salvage operations. 30 hours of work at least going into the preparation for getting the boat off the rocks. Thank you for taking the time to educate us all on this.

I commiserate with the salvage company

Thanks 😊

The boats deemed junk so why does it matter how it comes off the rocks?

Well it’s arm chair quarterbacks…95 percent of them are just full of KZbin shit!!

Good job at PR from them here.

Husky Salvage has M*G* book of excuses but no rocks were injured in this rescue.

You had been on Delphine? I'm a little wondering - on one side there are pictures of a steam engine, on the other hand there seem to be a pod steering command at the helm?

Really appreciate Husky Salvage responding with 100% valid clarification as to what they had to deal with in the effort to remove that boat from the rocks. Good on you!!!

What do people want, for that boat to sit on the rocks forever?

The British Fire & Rescue Service will not stop a fire within a building if there is no life at risk. They will attempt to stop it spreading where it may effect other premises and in doing so may extinguish the source. Life is more precious than stuff

We need to stop giving anything to people with money. Money doesn't make you smart, just wealthy.

Lefty propaganda, bullshit

So the salvage company insist they know more about boat salvage than a KZbin viewer . Unfortunately, these same KZbin viewers pass comments on putting fires out of landing aircraft and deep sea diving without having any experience or qualifications pmsl

they do professional salvage, i do professional internet trolling...they should stay in their lane

Thank you for allowing the salvor to have a response in all this. Having spent a number of years working in the offshore construction industry I can say first-hand nothing comes easy in a hostile marine environment. The damage to Reel Wild looks close to terminal. Any indication whether the boat is a write-off or repairable?

I too thought, that clip of the tender removal looked rough, but without further knowledge and that short clip didn`t think much about it. So Big thank to Husky Salvage and esysman for the clarification and additional footage.

helicopter???

So great to hear from Husky Salvage. Well Done.

A very well balanced and informative report...as per usual...well done
