Default FAO the curry folks! The sinking!

Here's a few pics from the web of the ship.

Before........



After.......





I have the Marine Accident Investigation Report saved on my computer at home should anyone want to see it. It has the pictures of the actual collision taken as they happened by the Indian captain of another ship which I could dig out later.

Absolutely NO Uncle Albert jokes

I spent alot of money that trip...... I also shagged alot of mega hot south american chicks. You name a country with a coastline, I bet I've been there...

Jimbo, we crashed into a ship called Atlantic Crusader. Holed the ship from no1 hold to no4 hold. Thats from the bow all the way to the accomodation block. Sunk in 2 minutes 40 seconds.

I was in the engine room with the new chief engineer, new 2nd engineer and 3 fresh out the box cadets when a small amount of water entered the engineering space I then, with everyone else, ran away.


EDITED TO ADD.... It's funny having a small boy like Jimbo calling a 30 year old bloke like me 'lad'

My insurance claim was slightly inflated
