For 13 days four Nigerians clung to the top of a ships rudder whilst it crossed the Atlantic to Brazil.

What a horrible website - pop ups & pop overs all over it.
Wasn't this story covered as year or two ago?

Use an ad blocker and there is little problem.
There was a similar story last year but IIRC it was not for as long or as far.

A few years there was stowaways on the rudder of a ship that arrived in Durban from up the east coast of Africa.

Don't you just hate these first world problems?
The rudder thing is an on going problem. Poor sods.

I have an ad blocker, but these are from the site itself, rather than external adverts.

First world problem, it is for sure.Don't you just hate these first world problems?

Still hate having to close several small windows to read anything though. Clearly they don't really want their site read, so I didn't.

That's a shame. Gcaptain is a very informative and useful site for those who use the sea.
