Summary An experienced demo team must use a novel explosives system to scuttle their first ship - the Hoyt S. Vandenberg. In this unprecedented demo job, Controlled Demolition Incorporated teams up with a marine salvage crew to turn a 17,000-ton former spy ship into the second-largest artificial reef in the world. Using torches above the water line and high explosives below, they will have to cut almost 500 holes in the ship's hull. The mission: replace air with water fast enough to land the Vandenberg upright in a narrow target zone. But it's a huge challenge - especially since none of the ship's electrical or navigational systems are functional. Will they give this dead ship new life? Or will the sink plan lead them to disaster?
