Ship - Stuck

A fully-laden logging ship has run aground off the coast of Gisborne.

Five metre swells pushed the 156 metre-long vessel, the Jodie F Millennium, on to sand at around ten o'clock last night.

Gisborne port company chief executive Ben Tahata says the ship is currently sitting upright and is not moving.

The ship's master has told him there is no leakage or any pollution.

He says up to three tugs will be called into action later today to help refloat the ship.

Mr Tahata says there is a risk further heavy swells could push the ship onto the beach.

There are no concerns for the crew's safety.

Now why is it that we never get anything cool like that happening up here in aucks ?

Because we dont get 5m swells in the harbor. We have that damned island... What's it called?? OOOOHHH. RANGITOTO!

Ahhh thankyou sarin. Always full of logic arent you ?!

you see the waves breaking on it?
up to four stories high pretty impressive to push a ship like that around.

Wicked in the Cook Straight around the same time they said that there were 15m swells....

what a total fuck up. those guys are going to reck that habour. IMO and SOLAS are gana send them two very large bills. the captain will lose his job the pliot that is ment to guide the boat into the harbour will also lose his job.

and as for the envoronment will be almost destroyed.


all for the sake of a ship load of fucking logs that we get ripped off for anyway.

and the japs are worried about there logs get fucked what about our coast line the environment.
