What do they think will happen to the 4,200 vehicles inside?

Well, half of them have been submerged in sea water for a year. The other
half have either been hanging from hold-down chains, sideways for a year in
a humid environment, or they have busted the chains and they are ALL in the
seawater. Other than scrap metal, there's not much they are good for,
except horror photos.

I can't imagine how the insurance company dealt with this, but it sounds
like a bottomless money pit. Vessel written off, cargo written off, now
they have to pay for removing millions of $ of asset. WOW!
