Read full article: One year later: Golden Ray cargo ship sits where it fell in St. Simons Sound

ST. SIMONS ISLAND, Ga. One year ago today the Golden Ray Cargo Ship carrying 4,2000 cars ran aground and overturned in the St. Simons Sound. A fire ignited and the race began to rescue 24 crew members who were aboard when the ship flipped. 35 hours later, the final crew members were rescued from the control room of the ship and amazingly, no serious injuries or deaths occurred. However, the 656-foot transport vessel is still sitting in the St. Simons Sound and the majority of the work is still ahead. A heavy lifting crane, called the VersaBar 10,000, will be used to lift the cargo ship, piece by piece until its ultimate removal.
