Going down with the ship

  1. Looks like they're creating an artificial reef.

  2. I would think that small boat is a bit too close to the sinking ship. Could be sucked under?

    1. Look at the tide line on the hull,it wouldnt be there if the ship was in the act of going down.

  3. I don't think I've ever seen a bow thruster on a big ship.

    1. If you look closer Rob, that is an anchor. You can see the chain to the left.

    2. Yep, look at that. Never seen an anchor with that shape before...not that I spent a lot of time looking... :-)

  4. I don't think that ship is going down. The little foam looks like swell induced. Note the wet area above it. If it was going down you should see a lot of air being forced out, blowing spray everywhere. I think she's on the bottom up against a large rock or cliff. Would be a great dive site.

  5. This photo shows the wreck of the Sun Vista, a Malaysian cruise ship that sank in the Strait of Malacca near Penang, Malaysia, in 1999. The ship caught fire during its journey and eventually sank.
    It’s now fully submerged and on the seabed. And, yes, it’s got great diving.

  6. Fill a paper cup full of water and set it next to an open fire. The paper cup will not burn.

    1. I'm an older new Zealander and thought that comment was funny. My country is going down the toilet at the moment with a woke Prime Minister who thinks Obama is just the most wonderful man he's ever met.
