otnmbrd wrote: "Ellen MacArthur" wrote in reenews.net: "otnmbrd" wrote deleted it this time Oh, something to ask an expert. Look at the dent in the top of that container. Doesn't it look like the corner of another container got dropped on top of it? Entirely possible Maybe more than one fell off the ship and the one in the water got hit by another one dropping down on it??? Entirely possible. And why do they float? Do they have waterproof gaskets on the doors? Not a container expert but the reefers are far better sealed than the non reefers. All containers have a pretty good seal but I wouldn't call it "waterproof". As for floating...... depends on what's inside..... load of lead, sink like a rock..... load of packing peanuts in hermetically sealed bags, float forever. reefers also have foot thick foam walls, great floation.
