This should go under the heading, "You should see the other guy."

From the report I had seen, the ship is pretty banged up. So is the reef.

great pics... the ship was not the only thing 'grounded", imagine being the new skipper of a new ship and you ground it on your first trip out....

Maybe a dumb question but why the blue anti-fouling? Is this specific for the Pacific ocean?

The blue anit-fouling is a new type. I had read about it, but my mind is blank. If I recall it is expoy based and is better on the environment.
