its moving!!

Pity it's not staying there, would be good tourist attraction.

I thought this was going to be a porn thread.

Have you seen the pics taken from the ship when it was getting hammered? Pretty scary stuff.

I'd upload them but have forgotten how to access my optus web space :(

Thanks for the link man !

ive been on one of those

Reminds me ot that simpsons episode, where the lighthouse is out and the ship crashes on the beach and they play that "we want short shorts" song.

Also, someone with a hotdog stand could be making a killing judging by the amount of people watching.

That thing seriously doesn't look like it will be going anywhere.

Pasha Bulker - the new Cherry Venture

s*** I didn't reallse that it is that close to the shore.

I'll work out how to upload the other pics tonight.

Yeah.. I'm with those that there will be a new tourist attraction in Newcastle. Guess they needed something big to attract people to go there.

they won't leave it there, even if they don't get it refloated. it would be dismantled, it's not like it's a little tug boat like the Cherry Venture

Where can I upload images too? Or how do I access my optusweb space - I can't remember :(

Holy f***. That would have been scary as s*** seeing water coming over the deck like that.

it happens frequently, apparrently.

jump on youtube and search for rogue wave videos. s*** is more common than you think. It would still be scary as f*** im sure.

yeah I was thinkin it'd be fairly common, that cargo section sits reasonably low in the water and I remember bits of docos showing the watertight lids on them

I dont klnow if that ship is ever getting off the beach. Every wave thats come in would have built up more and more sand around it, wouldnt it?

thats what i would have thought, but the other day the thing was moving quite a lot because of the waves...

why can't they put sticks of dynamite in the sand?

why can't they put sticks of dynamite in the sand?

something about holes in ships making them sink....

They need BF1942 physics to fix this problem.

they just pump water into the sand around the hull, they reckon it could possibly even propel itself thru sand that's that full of water

Those arent the pics from the Pasha, those are pics taken in like 1980 of a ship crossing the Atlantic I believe.
