Hopefully they can take it out of the environment.

If you’ve ever watched “Drain the Ocean” on National Geographic then you’ll recognize this ship. RV Petrel

DistortoiseLP t1_jd8slj5 wrote on March 22, 2023 at 5:29 PM

Petrel actually did ring a bell and now I'm realizing it's from the news about the USS Johnston wreck back in 2021.

GMFPs_sweat_towel t1_jd96rqc wrote on March 22, 2023 at 6:58 PM

The RV petral has found dozens of historical shipwrecks. It really is an amazing vessel

I am wondering who his sister is selling it to, she is selling off or letting his projects die.

It was bought by the US Navy

No mention on what caused this to happen.

gtmattz t1_jd8pb3e wrote on March 22, 2023 at 5:08 PM

Paraphrased from the article: "Strong winds caused the ship to become dislodged from its holdings while in drydock". Seems like they do mention the cause.

Strong winds

GMFPs_sweat_towel t1_jd8np1t wrote on March 22, 2023 at 4:58 PM

Probably because it only happened hours ago. I'm sure there will be an investigation, but clueless speculation is not helpful.

Shradow t1_jd8ggyz wrote on March 22, 2023 at 4:13 PM

I don't - it may be small beer, but I was literally blown off my bike this morning, and I've a lot less area to pick up the wind.
