Giglio News has a page with a couple of time lapse videos (hosted on YouTube) of her departure from Giglio. It's good to see that she got a fireboat salute as she left.

Finally! She just left from Giglio Island. She will be towed back to home base and she will be scrapped.

We will always remember this. We will bid farewell to Costa Concordia.

She's actually almost reached Genoa now:-

[Clicky. Giglio is in the bottom right hand corner of the first map, the second island moving southwest from Ortobello, with two red diamonds on it.]

Yep, from the marinetraffic link I posted above, she is about 12 nm off Genoa now, sailing about a knot. I'm sure they want to do the final approach in daylight. Supposed to arrive around midday Sunday, local time.

Here's a pretty cool professional video taken by a drone, before it was moved. The drone one taken whilst it was being moved has already been posted above.
