No kidding!

And went down in 3000', no less.

A Live Aboard is worthless once it sinks.

Unless you want to offer future customers a wreck diving opportunity

That would be the Trident, in Thailand....

Wow, a new soap opera. As The Propellor Turns.

No, no, no, I have already named it "As the Keys turn..." Those props stopped turning before they hit the bottom.

Wasn't it said that a freighter towed it in?

I think the sympathy for the captain fell off a bit.

 

[The Chairman]

No Don, the freighter only pulled the Captain in. The boat is sleeping with the really deep fishies.

Ooooookay. Poor gear, but serves a greater good I suppose.

I can think of better ways to do it, but maybe an life insurance fraud / suicide attempt.
