Brother if I were in charge of removing that ship I would first try tugs and maybe a destroyer or other shipi with a lot of torque to dislodge her. Unloading to raise the draft would be a last resort. We'll see what happens. I can't imagine how long it takes to go around the horn of Africa.

Brother appears they tried the tugs, now claiming several weeks before they can clear it. I just can not see them getting this done without losing the extra weight.

According to an internet shipfag (not me) it takes about 2 weeks to go around the Horn, and it's dangerous. Shipfag also claims that the tug boats used in the Suez are rinky-dink pieces of shit, run by below average crews, and managed by largely incompetent canal managers.
