So far was the vessel off course, and so in need of a decent wreck diving site was Phuket, that local diver joked that the captain took a massive bribe to slam the vessel into the reef. As seen by the picture above, no one got hurt during the sinking apart from the insurers. http://www.thaiwreckdiver.com/wreck_listingsx.htm#king_cruiser scubaengineer@gmail.com (Stephen Burton) World news http://www.thaiwreckdiver.com/contactx.htm BA18B846-419E-4578-8F3F-0247719A4518 Thu, 1 May 1997 13:17:13 +0000
