Please be aware that, due to the apathethic attitude of the Irish Government, the readers and online forum contributors of AFLOAT magazine/website have convinced the management of the publication to run a petition online at the AFLOAT website and people will also be able to sign the petition at the up-coming Boat Show at the RDS in Dublin.

This can be verified at the following links

WE would appreciate any publicity or support you could give us by signing the petition and telling your sympathethic friends.

Many thanks in advance
 
Thanks for posting the link. That ship should be a priority for the government at the moment, in my view it's as important to the people as health care and education. Fantastic vessel, proud to have sailed on her several times.
 
I understand she is thought to have hit a hard heavy object floating awash (cargo container?) and sprung or stove in a plank below the waterline somewhere forrard as a result. More water coming in than the pumps could remove so DJL the inevitable end.
