todayiamadaisyA sentence from an article I read today:
'Since 2000, at least seven ghost ships have been found wandering the seas, from a rusted, 80-metre-long tanker off Australia with no known owner to an empty yacht found near Sardinia with half-eaten meals on-board.'
So that's something to ponder.
The yacht, though. There's a story, if only someone knew what it was. The tanker too, I suppose, but at least there's a chance the people who know what happened to it might still be on dry land.
(The article I read isn't online, but it was about a ship that went missing in February this year, the Lyubov Orlova. The article I read said they have now had two position-indicating radio beacons, and they think the ship is still floating somewhere in the North Atlantic. So keep a look out next time you're in the area.)
