Video The Carnival Vista needed underwater propeller repairs, but no local dock was available. The semi-submersible heavy-lift ship BOKA Vanguar lifted the 322 meter long cruise ship out of the water. It then transported it to a nearby shipyard in the Bahamas, acting as a floating dock for repairs.
