    Another ship hit by bad weather

    This morning I read another ship has had 2 deaths due to extreme weather/sea conditions in the MED. Three 26 foot waves hit the ship and shattered glass windows. We had a topic on the bay of biscay but it seems it is the Med that needs watching. My condolence to the families.

    Hello Edna,
    St. Paul of Tarsa would agree with you, he had trouble too.

    just watched video of this on a news site.....very scarey. Still very stormy in the med it appears. I wish everyone well who endured this and condolences to those affected
    Same thing happened to us on a north sea ferry years ago, hit side on by a freak wave and I wasn't in a hurry to go back to sea after that.
