Yes, it was a weird-looking boat that was working on the River Princess, I think it broke loose and drifted over towards Calangute/Baga and went aground.

They sent a tug to pull it free but that got stuck and had to be pulled free by another tug.

Let's hope the beach rebuilds to its former self.
I understand it's started already.
As for what's left of the Princess wherever it may be

The beach from Fort Aguada to the Calamari shack was looking a lot better when we was there in mid May but it is what it will look like after the monsoons that matters, lets hope that the removal of the RP will stop or at least slow down the land erosion in that area

When we were in Goa Last (Jan 2010) they were just beginning to remove the ship, we actually met the Supervisor who was in charge, and he was saying to us that as part of the contract they were to leave the beach how it was pre Princess....we thought at the time it would be an impossible task...
.....can't get over how good that stretch of beach looks now!
