What a way to go

[maltaman]

The trial just started in Malta of a Captain and Chief Engineer on charges of manslaughter of a commercial diver. It seems he was commissioned to inspect the bottom of the ship, and was in the water doing so, when someone switched on the bow thrusters. I'll leave the rest to the imagination.. Thought it might be interesting to some of the SB members to follow the trial.

Nothing yet - I believe the case has been put back to continue on a later date. I'll post as soon as there are any developments.
