Everybody working hard for that oil money, the world used to ignore Guyana for decades even though the cry for help was ongoing forever, used to be ranked in the top 5 poorest countries in the west, today countries see gains so they will do anything to get that money

Fantastic job, thanks to the KOOLE Company from Holland # 1

All of that work Guyana's oil money has paid for the service... that's no free work!!!!

[@jerrybanks9216]

I'm looking at the amount of material they removed VS the size of the sunken vessel plus chain and anchor from another vessel it's not matching up a lot of it is still down there or they pushed it into the mud with that dig dull blade

[@robpeters5204]

I’m surprised why the crew didn’t wash off the mud from the deck with a high pressure washing machine. Keep the workers safe. A big electro magnet would have helped to pick up the loose pieces from the bottom also. Where did they get this crew from???

[@jerrybanks9216]

Explains why they say 1billion to repair the DHB

[@thesage1096]

electro magnet. ...... in a....river......ELECTRO magnet.... in water ..... ok kinda wished u were on that crew.....as the team lead .... wud make for way more interesting viewership.

[@sarrannauth7660]

Electric magnet and water are not safe

[@jessiegoss3712]

Great job, well done. Hard to imagine using such a huge chisel. Awesome!

[@ThatsAmazing-bz1bg]

My grandfather Johnny Logue was a pilot in County Donegal, North-West Ireland, piloting boats around the coast from Mulroy Bay to Rathmullan and Derry. In the mid to late-70's my father travelled with him onboard one of these trips on the Arklow River (former name of Miss Ellisa) taking flour from Rathmullan to the now closed flour mill at Milford. Navigating Mulroy Bay was a challenging piece of pilotage and he learnt this from his father and grandfather. The video attached is a song that my brother made about Mulroy Bay and our grandfather. It contains some footage of Miss Ellisa in her former guise as Arklow River. Enjoy....... kzbin.info/www/bejne/nKmodGx9gsyWZ7M

Very nice job clearing that old ship out of the way so the river will be safe for shipping!

The sad part poor Guyanese will walk around with lots of pride but only get the crumb of the table.

[@anjanie5036]

I SAY THE SAME THING ON THE EAST BANK OF BERBICE YOU SHOULD SEE THEM POOR PEOPLE THERE. ALSO THAT'S A PART OF REGION 6 YET NOTHING REALLY GOING ON THERE TO HELP WITH JOBS AND OR HOUSING FROM THE GOVERNMENT OF GUYANA. THERE THE POOR STAYS POOR, ONLY JOB THERE IS THE SAWMILL, AND THAT'S NOT EVEN PAYING PROPER WAGES,

[@kenlowe3673]

The ship removed was the 'Miss Ellisa', a small coastal cargo ship built in the Netherlands in 1969 as the 'Apollo 1'. She had many names throughout her career with different owners, being commonly seen around the West Coast of the UK at one time as the 'Tora'. I photographed her in 1986 at Runcorn. She later worked for several years for a Canadian company based in Newfoundland. She capsized and sank in the Demerara River in 2012. Six of her seven crew were rescued.

[@thesage1096]

how heavy is the chisel again ?

[@melin1969]

high powered welding torches to cut metal up ?

[@phulmatimichel844]

Great job if the Government dont have the funds it would have remained there.thank you Guyana govt.

[@MegaReception1]

[@cliffm8112]

[@missy73000]
