And a virtually calm sea! The result of the investigation will be interesting.

I wonder what happens when pirates climb aboard one of these?

Ships, don't sink very often, in fact only once.
Under normal circumstances.

Good to have evidence you are alive and well Bob!
What's your opinion about the way the Royal Navy is performing at the moment, frigates tied up out of commission, ships being de-commissioned early because of a lack of crew, a test missile that goes 'plop' and two carriers that are in for repair at the same time.
Or am I being too hard on Mr Shapps....... :biggrin2:
