Very sad, but it does confirm that we should never underestimate the power of the sea. I do hope some of the bodies eventually surface to allow the families to have closure.

I wonder how much the cement handling plant affected her stability.....

Mention has been made in the Press about her failure of an inspection in December 2013 and one of the problems involved the "Launching Arrangements for Survival Craft" however that would have been put right before the detention was lifted and it was cleared in a subsequent inspection.
