  • Howard;

    Just heard that the Sim Kingston lost 106 containers overboard, not 35 as originally reported.
    • wow - not good - a lot of Christmas presents !!
  • Thanks Howard and Jack,

    Yes, I hear the story made international news.

    We've had gale-force winds that have hampered fire fighting and recovery efforts.

    A reminder that serious accidents can happen anywhere.
  • Excellent Patrick - well caught - we heard about it on the news.
  • Great capture Patrick
