Knew something was missing.

100 round belt with a SAW. (it's quite difficult to control the recoil when you're the size of a ferret, you know..)

That was you? I won't have to till the flower beds this spring. Thanks!

You even aerated the lawn for me. How thoughtful.

somewhere been said that hit teh rock at 21 knots. i wonder how such modern ships, that normally should have also a sort of sonar alert too plus other systems of navigations ( with comunication with the capitaneria di porto, so info is exchanged). Was an alert issue at the ship just before encountering the trouble?

To me, it will get scrapped.

anyways i am astonished to see a soo big wreck ( i have seen quite many times such ship, probably a sister ship etc.)

according to bbc, they found 2 more dead bodies inside the cabins.

It's interesting that she capsized to starboard, but you can see heavy damage from her striking on the port side. Maybe there are even bigger holes to starboard, or maybe she just had bad watertight subdivision.
