A tug boat sits alongside the grounded Hoegh Osaka cargo ship on the Bramble Bank in the entrance of the Southampton Waters in between Southapton on the southern English coast and the Isle of Wight on January 6, 2015. The Hoegh Osaka, bound for Germany with 1,400 cars, beached on the submerged Bramble Bank, a well-marked hazard lying between the major container port of Southampton and access to the open sea beyond the Isle of Wight on January 3, 2014. Experts were assessing how to salvage the stricken ship and to minimise environmental impact in the busy waters. AFP PHOTO / ADRIAN DENNIS
