Refloating Sunken Yacht Using Air-bags

A neighbouring yacht had sunk during the winter due to the weight of snow. Previous attempts to refloat it with airbags had failed.

This time they nailed the refloating just right and after some time pumping-it out, in the other photo the poor yacht is seen being towed away to be scrapped.
