  7. Well the Italians may not have raised her per se but Micoperi must have burnt the midnight oil pulling that team together. A real ground breaker as well as public spectacle. Some real lateral thinking going on there, I mean who'd have thought of fabricating a profile with three spigots matching the three Bow Thruster tunnels so as to provide lifting purchase if needed? Having watched various video streams am now awaiting the definitive dvd :rolleyes:
     
  8. The South Africans have Pikey scrapers!!!!!!
