I was thinking about this thread today and did a little more research.
The vid didn't convey the size ... geez, that ship was 730 ft! There's more info here: http://www.boatnerd.com/windoc/ and this link to photos is at the end of the above article: http://www.tsb.gc.ca/en/media/photo_...054_thumbs.asp |

Atleast there was no injury to vital parts! :D |
