Do you think trucks' tires pressure still correct?
@felixcat93182 жыл бұрын
I find it very odd that manual control valves were not used to control the flow of water to the ballast tanks. The electric pumps could have been deactivated and the shut off valves physically closed to regain control from the supposedly malfunctioning water ballasting computer. That being said, why was the wreck never ordered to be salvaged from the seabed, as this depth and the environmental conditions would have made the task quite straightforward. The entire scenario of the computer causing the unrecoverable loss of stability and the loss of the new vessel appears to be somewhat implausible. Presumably the Marine Accident Investigation Report on the loss covered all relevant points of interest.

I find underwater wrecks morbidly fascinating. One day it was a bright, shimmering ship sailing proudly in the sea and then it’s a barnacle encrusted mess of discoloured metal. Yet you can still see where life had once been. I’m glad nobody perished in the sinking of the Zenobia.

What a shame to watch it sink. Couldn't think of running it aground somewhere to prevent it from being a total loss.

Thanks for the video.I'm part way through and my first question is does she still have all her fuel on board??? And if so why haven't they removed it?? Because the longer you wait the more expensive it gets.

More recent dive videos show the Lada has lost it's bonnet. And many trucks are missing their steering wheels. Looks like she's being slowly picked apart by vandals/trophy hunters

The other two sisters were converted to Ro-Ro Vehicle & Passenger Ferries by Sealink British Ferries in the late 80s early 90s they were Renamed Fiesta & Fantasia whilst still Freight Ferries one went for Rebuilding the Other became Channel Seaway for a short time now this is where they get complicated as the 1 that was named Fantasia became SNAT's Fiesta and the 1 that had been Fiesta became Sealink British Ferries Fantasia then Later when Stena Line Bought Sealink from Seacontainers in the 90s Fantasia became Stena Fantasia then when Stena Line Dropped the Sealink trading name for their own Stena Line name Stena and SNAT parted ways SNAT became Seafrance and Stena Line stayed as was then they merged with P&O and Stena Fantasia became P&OSL Canterbury then Later P O Canterbury! She was sold to Greek interests who renamed her Alkmini A she was then later sold to POL ferries who renamed her Wawel! Now what happened to the Fiesta? She was used by Seafrance as their Seafrance Cezanne still owned 49% by Stena Line until 1999 who sold the interest to Seafrance Now once newer Tonnage appeared for Seafrance the Cezanne was Stood down she was sold at around the Same time as the Seafrance Renoir (formerly Coté d'Azur) the Cezanne became Western Light and Renoir became Eastern Light they were both scrapped after their final Voyages

Great shots and a wierd story. My dad drove on the middle east and went on that ferry two times. Him and his colleagues think it was mossad since Albanian and turks might have been delivering supplies to Lebanon or Syria. The whole ordeal was still a big loss for the shipping company. Will you film more there? Best regards from Sweden:)
@henrikforsman85487 жыл бұрын
Interesting movie. I'm Swedish and have made two trips to Cyprus, exclusively to dive the Zenobia in 2006 and 2010. My only complaint is the poor research of what happened back then. Zenobia was delivered in Nov 1979 and sank in June 1980. It goes without saying that the last voyage wasn't her second 'maiden' voyage. She probably completed at least 20 voyages before the accidential one. Not two but three vessels were built; Zenobia, Ariadne and Scandinavia. The latter is still in service in 2016, now named Wavel, owned by Polferries. She was heavily converted back in 1990 from a deep sea RoRo to a channel ferry.

I suppose that oil rig whose computer control room (located low on one of the rig legs) that took on water through a broken window, causing the water ballast control computer to pump excessive volumes into some tanks which led to the capsize if the rig, was also caused by a mysterious spy agency, in your opinion.

Hi Volvo Mann, yes it is that good... not all the time but most of the time. In the summer for sure we get a daily 20-30 mters viz, but sometimes it exceeds that... when the Med is like a pond, not a ripple in the water, driving in our large comfortable boat, with no other divers out there yet except for ours and we are about to dive on this huuuuuge awesome wreck... can it get any better? Be great to see you... drop us a line for more information buddy: 00357 99866383 or [email protected] Have a pukka weekend :) Best regards, Chris.

Especially when i asked other dive centers afterwards that would have let me inside after they saw i could dive safe.. I would love to go back to do some real tech dive there now..
