Virtual Sailor: English Channel Wreck

[FlyTexas]

Went for a little virtual sail today and came across a creepy rust-bucket resting on the bottom.

Interesting Brian

But if you were sailing, how did you find a wreck on the bottom??

[FlyTexas]

Sonar.

I had a sinking feeling when I saw the title and now I know that you've reached rock bottom, Brian

And rock bottom seems to be a long way down in this part of the Channel. Oh, I liked the Mary Deare so much I decided to raise her. Just had to open one of the cargo hatches to let the water out.

Couldn't you have just made another hole in the bottom to let the water out??

[Garry Russell]

Just noiticed, you're not in the English Channel...You're in the Bay of St. Malo

Brian, sail on to Giglio - they're estimating 1 year of salvage work on the Costa Concordia.
And if you'd make it steam right away like Mary Deare - Costa would surely pay you a bonus...

Cheers,
