Sunken ship

Off Topic
  • (sorry for my English) This morning we were sailing over the Rhein (a big river) and we heard over the radio-phone a messege that a has ship sunk.
    We passed them a few hours later.

    The ship must have crashed at the side of the harbor and the back of the ship got a very big hole.
    Water came into the ship and the captain tryed to sail the ship back into another little harbor.
    At the beginning of the harbor he sunk.
    Only the wheelhouse, a part of the loaded material and the front of the ship were still above water level.
    (So thanks to the dept of the water he did not sunk totally)

    From the news we know, all people (2) were saved
    I've got some pics:

    I'm very happy nobody has died…

  • Wow, that is too bad. I feel so bad for the captain..glad they were saved.

    @JENGOSMonkey I WAS THERE FOR '89! I was a kid, but I remember the water coming out of the swimming pool in huge waves and everything falling from the shelves! I was actually born in San Jose, but moved around a lot later LOL I hear the wildfires are more of a concern for you guys now? That's scarier than quakes for me...

    @kembe - Very True Kembe, here is a link on looking for a responsible breeder. https://bconc.org/finding-breeders-red-flags There are many scammers out there, don't fall for one.. or a person that is not a responsible breeder.

    @sanjibasenji Thanks for the article on Dog Genome Project - I found it very interesting. I was trying to figure out the interactive Genome wheel. It has the basenji closely related to the Azawakh and rat terrier but I’m still trying to figure out the first wheel which has the basenji listed w/ black/grey starting point. As far as the PBS Dog Tales video - it’s very interesting - it’s season 47 episode 2 - I highly recommend you watch the whole thing (54 minutes).

    @Kembe, nice post! We've gone to solid food chopped up in a food processor, but we're grinding it a bit more course as we go. So far, no puppies are choking, but good to know!
