The 'Hephaestus' which had been grounded at the coast of Qawra and was towed to the Cassar Ship Repair yard in Marsa recently, will not be repaired after baulking at the price tag. The ship will therefore either be sunk as a diving attraction or sold for scrap. It will take around two months to prepare the ship for sinking after the oil is cleaned off it and other small changes are carried out to render it safe for divers.
