After almost three months underwater, the fishing vessel Fate Hunter was successfully lifted, refloated and towed to Cordova, Alaska, on Oct. 29, 2013. Following the grounding of the fishing vessel near Shoup Bay on Aug. 11, 2013, Alaska Marine Response and Alaska Chaudux deployed boom, removed all recoverable fuel, hydraulic and lube oils and stabilized the Fate Hunter in preparation for salvage operations to remove the vessel from the rock ledge on which it rested.
