After three attempts to refloat it, authorities in Britain have said a small general cargo ship will likely remain aground on a river in northern England through to next month and a change in tide conditions.

The Dutch-flagged, 1,842 dwt H&S Wisdom ran aground on Sunday on the Humber estuary in northern England, while en route to Gunness Wharf Port near Scunthorpe.

A spring tide in early April is now viewed as the next time an attempt will be made to refloat the 21-year-old general cargo vessel with the crew expected to remain onboard until then.
