Is the tow rig SRW or DRW?
I suspect SRW and overall ground pressure per square inch caused the whole problem!
The airbags should have aided with flotation, so I'm completely stumped though.

It was my understanding it was be towed with a dodge with the mirrors folded in.....

Also guessing the basin was not an engineered basin constructed of concrete and reed bar, but of basin block and mortar (Easier to blast though the sides).
