  1. fucking great! fuck russia and their entire economy!

  2. Nice looking ship, it would look better on the bottom. Someone needs to plan how to make that happen.

  3. Hate do disappoint. Personally I would’ve also loved her to drift onto some riff and sink. But as things stand, if you track the ships live location, the ship is no longer anywhere near Portugal, has passed into the Med and is currently south of Spain. She seems to be doing fine (unfortunately) and what problem she had, if any, has been fixed.

    PS: she also departed in Kaliningrad and is heading to Egypt, not Syria?

  4. “This…is…SPARTA!”

    (Russian version = ends up in a hole)

  5. Where I am in the UK, there are thousands of Ukrainian troops. Surely some of them like messing around in a boat? It’s not even that far to Portugal. And there’s loads of boats down near Plymouth just laying around… I’m sure one of them has the keys under the floormat.

  6. Would someone tell me what might be behind this suddenly appearing series of ruzzian cargo breakdowns, pls? Is it something new, or just became news recently?
