The Cuauhtémoc remains docked off Pier 37 as work crews shore up the ship’s three splintered masts. The ship is expected to be taken to a nearby salvage yard where a full investigation can be held.

Two crew members aboard a Mexican Navy sailing ship died on Saturday night when the vessel drifted into the underside of the Brooklyn Bridge, smashing its masts and rigging.

The Mexican Navy said earlier a total of 22 people were injured, 19 of whom were taken to hospitals.
