The 6,732–teu ship MSC Flaminia (built 2001) has meanwhile developed a slight list which maybe suggests there has been an influx of water into the vessel which has now been on fire for five days.
It is still too dangerous for a Smit salvage master on the 16,320-hp Fairmount Expedition (built 2007) to attempt to board the NSB Niederelbe operated MSC Flaminia.
