    I am sure that they can be assist towed back into deep water. We are not considering a cradle lift with a crane, just a straight pull out then release the line before it turns and gets tangled. There is no way that whale was 40 tonne that's like saying it was the size of a 40 foot high cube container loaded with steak which it is not
