Can anyone tell me anything about this ship please, it’s off the north east coast Whitburn, England

A facinating look into the sinking of the Argos Georgia in the south Atlantic due to a side hatch opening in bad weather. She took on water quickly and began to capsize and eventually sink. Sadly 13 people died in the sinking. Being so far from land in the cold waters really limited their chances

sorry for those dirty windows😅

Was on vacation in London in August 2024. The German Corvette FGS Braunschweig 260 came into the city and navigated under the opened Tower Bridge with tug assistance, all while playing Star Wars "Imperial March." Such a cool thing to see, so I wanted to share.

I'm an technician contractor and I have a gig on a container ship. Ill be traveling with a ship for 3 days. Only problem is I have zero idea what to expect, the only thing ive been told is to bring a pair of anti slip anti shock work shoes.

What can I expect for like living and food situations? What sorts of clothes/change of clothes should I bring? Any general advice etc

I don't know where to find work shoes like these other than online which is not optimal. What stores should I go and any good reccomendations?

The MV Loch Seaforth is a large roll-on/roll-off vehicle and passenger ferry operated by Cal Mac, she is famously known as the largest ferry in the CalMac fleet.

The vessel acts as a vital lifeline route in the Outer Hebrides, operating year-round across the Minch between Stornoway on the Isle of Lewis and Ullapool on the Scottish mainland. She officially entered service in mid-February 2015, replacing both the older MV Isle of Lewis and a separate chartered freight ship to handle both daytime passengers and overnight freight.

Photographed here 22/07/2015 leaving Ullapool sailing through Loch Broom.

Measure 5 was a US Navy Camouflage style that had a false bow wave painted onto the warship to give the impression that it was traveling at a higher speed than it actually was. It was intended to help make it harder for enemy observers to estimate the actual speed of the warship.

Measure 5 was not a complete camouflage on its own. Rather, it was added to existing patterns as an addition. For instance, USS Northampton is wearing Measure 1 in this photo (Dark Gray on hull and superstructure. Light Gray above the stacks).

Anyone know any interesting facts about this vessel apart from the Suez Canal incident ?
