Costa Concordia in miniature: in St. Petersburg sinks Debarkader

In St. Petersburg, rescuers work all day near the Debarkader "Sail" - from the former floating restaurant, a strongly tilted, they pump out water, reports Fontanka.ru .

The issue of towing a debrkader to a parking lot in a small Turukhtan harbor, which is scheduled for early October, is being resolved.

Photos of the rolling "sail" resemble Costa Concordia in miniature: the debarkader also clearly lays on the side, and if it turns into the promenade of the Zhdanovka river, then the angle of the roll will be similar.

The first attempt to evict a “sail” of the Center for increasing the efficiency of state property was made on September 25. However, she ended in failure, as the floating restaurant began to sink. Representatives of the owner and center exchanged cross accusations of what was happening.

From Tuesday to Sunday, the ship managed to keep afloat thanks to the pumps, but on Sunday morning the owners found out that the leak expanded. From noon, employees of the Ministry of Emergencies connected to pumping water. At the site of the emergency, up to seven special vehicles and divers worked.
