I watched the first half of this,.and I'll have to watch the rest later. It's very good! The portrayal of the Americans cracked me up.

A friend of mine works for a mining company. I wonder if he knows this.

There are a lot of old phosphate mines in central Florida. Some have been made into man-made lakes and parks.

I grew up in St. Petersburg, and other than 4 years in Gainesville for college, I have lived in the area ever since.

Also, the 5 members of the Riding Crew were Polish contractors who were preparing the ship to be transferred to Alaska.

I'm sure you have forgotten more about engines than I will ever know. 😊

I've attached the crew list here. Looks like 6 engineers, 3 Oilers and 2 "Qualified Members of the Engine Dept."

With the listing *and* being tossed around by the storm, certainly it would have been inconsistent.

I did a lot of reading about how the list impacted the oil pressure. I'm certainly no engineer, but I found it interesting. The engineers worked their tails off to get the pressure back for the engines and the pumps. But they never could do it.

#OTD Oct 10, 1993, the passenger ferry MV Seohae capsized and sank in the Yellow Sea during a storm. The vessel was traveling from Jeju Island to Mokpo carrying over 360 passengers and crew—well over its intended capacity. (1/2) 🧵

The recordings were tremendously helpful, as we're the Coast Guard Marine Casualty Report and the NTSB in estivation report.

The vessel was battling rough seas, strong winds, and a fishing net caught in its propellers. 292 people lost their lives making it one of South Korea’s deadliest maritime disasters. (2/2) ⚓
