STORYLINE:

The submarine 'Kursk' was raised to the point of its waterline on Wednesday, where its conning tower, with its shattered glass windows and red Russian eagle seal, could be seen above water.

With the Kursk fully out of the water, Prosecutor-General Vladimir Ustinov, top Naval officials and a team of about 40 investigators observed a moment of silence before stepping onto the submarine's deck.

Ustinov sent clear instructions to investigators as to what they should do once the submarine has been dried off.

Russian authorities promise that in two or three days the Kursk would be sufficiently dry to begin investigating its interior in the hope of finding the exact cause of its sinking.
