Salvage crews today drilled into the hull of the ferry in an attempt to remove the fuel on board
It's been another bumper weekend for Cleveleys traders, as thousands of sightseers descended on the town to catch a glimpse of the stricken Riverdance ferry.
Tourists took advantage of the good weather to come and see the ship, and see the salvage operation at first hand.
Salvage crews today drilled into the hull of the ferry in an attempt to remove the fuel on board as part of the operation to refloat the Riverdance, which ran aground on January 31.
The ship is likely to remain beached just south of Cleveleys for the next two weeks.
