That small tanker is still grounded off Sydney Mines.
A salvage team couldn’t pull it off the sandy bottom at high tide last night because they couldn’t remove enough ballast water to increase the Arca 1’s bouyancy enough.

Judge Alan Tufts says he needs more time to decide the fate of Brent Hawkes. He underwent trial in the fall on accusations of indecent assault and gross indency in connection with incidents at his trailer in Greenwood when he was a teacher in the 1970s.
Tufts will now deliver his verdict January 31.
