Why is it a sad end, idiot? It was on it's way to Turkey to be scraped
anyway, Suckling Don.

I wish I were close. Hell, I'd carry it out by the bucket. I love free diesel!

Good point, that is 2600 gallons, give or take, at over $4 a gallon,
it should be worth saving.
Do it coincidental with a full moon high tide and they might be able
to pull this sucker off the shoal.


Not if it takes $15K of boat, crew and gear to get it. But the fines
might deter them to spend what it takes.

Why in the hell would they take it all the way to Turkey to be
scrapped. That's nuts.


They most likely bid the most for the hulk.

It is easier to float 900 feet of steel to Turkey.

Now Don, we can settle this once again. Would you want to wager $1000 US
that I'm not Kevin, and I don't live in GA??? I know, show us once more
what a coward you are, Suckling Don. I'm sure your equally cowardly
master Harry will interject too, so this offer is extended to him, also.
Now make yourselves look as cowardly as possible when you back down,
Suckling Don.
