The Dali is on the move again.
The massive cargo vessel became buoyant around 6:40 a.m on Monday. Tugboats began moving Dali around 7 a.m. thanks to favorable environmental conditions, according to a statement from Unified Command.
Officials shared photos on social media of the Key Bridge site visible for the first time in months without the vessel.
