Yueyin,
From what I've read and heard, it's an extremely difficult and dangerous task...
Unfortunately, the outlook seems pretty grim.
Steve,
抢救难度确实很大,也很危险。这篇报道做了具体分析:
http://www.chinanews.com/gn/2015/06-03/7319459.shtml
不过从技术角度看,抢救设施还不够先进。最起码应该具有水下照明、红外探测之类的手段吧?应急反应也有些迟钝。例如,根据上述报道,还是有大型水上浮吊起重船可以利用的。
对此有专家指出,当前紧急需要有大型水上浮吊起重船让船只正浮,目前,离事发地点监利最近的只有上游宜昌和下游武汉有这种浮吊起重船。浮吊起重船行至监利最快也需要24小时至48小时,给救援带来难度。
既然有,那么是否应该从一开始就让这种浮吊起重船往失事地点开?如果那样,也许它现在已经到达失事地点了。俗话讲,不怕慢,只怕站。无论如何,早晚还是会用得上这种浮吊起重船。即使白跑一趟又怎么样呢?事到如今,结果确实不堪设想。 | | |

Steve,
恶劣的气象条件固然是导致船舶颠覆的重大原因,但从许多报道看来,其中也有人为的因素。据说船长犯了个致命的错误,在暴风雨中改变了船的方向,使得船的侧面迎风受力。附近的另一艘船却安然无恙。此外,据说此船经过多次改建,加剧了其头重脚轻的状态。这种所谓的“豪华游轮”,今后谁还敢坐? | | |

Yueyin,
Yes, I agree. Indeed I noticed that the so-called "luxury" vessel looked extremely top-heavy. I remember the Korean MV Sewol had the same problem of instability, due to extensive modifications of adding hundreds of passenger cabins to the higher level decks. | | |

Steve,
从以下报道可以看出,这种改建的目的显然就是为了增加客舱数量、增加载客量,同时将大客舱改为小客舱、提高客舱“豪华”程度。简言之,就是为了多赚钱。游轮公司为了多赚钱,就拿乘客和船员的生命来冒险!

That was a disaster just waiting to happen. I don't see anything luxurious about it.
Apparently the renovation was driven by greed. And what were they thinking blocking the windows with headboards? Over here, it never would have passed a basic safety audit. | | |

That's an incredibly nostalgic song, one of my favorites. Thanks for the wonderful YouTube links, QHE.
How about that American Pharoah, eh? I was glued to NBC's coverage of the race yesterday. | | |

Steve,
Me too... I was “super glued” to the Belmont Stakes coverage.
BTW, I just learned that Belmont Park has a history of early aviation shows and tournaments. Harriet Quimby, the first woman to gain a pilot's license in the United States, learned of the excitement of flight at the Belmont Park International Aviation Tournament on Long Island, New York in 1910; and in 1912, she became the first woman to fly across the English Channel.
