Salvage Divers

The salvage divers execute a plan to patch a 27-meter gash in the stern section of the beached New Carissa to make it watertight. After pumping out the seawater, they will re-float the stern and pull it to sea - disposing of it in 1000 meters of water. But it won't go easily. The ship is submerged in 15 meters of water and the stern is mired 11 meters deep in the sand - too deep to work in from shore, and too shallow to bring a heavy lift barge in. Can they overcome these improbable odds?
