Re: Video of el faro disaster.
Hi Brian, I was able to follow the video as it has got captions, it brings it home doesn't it just how powerful nature is, I know
you've seen so much more than I have but I did get a taster when Orari was caught up in Hurricane Carrie when the Pamir
was lost. My mums Great Granddad was a ships master, his ship went down with the loss of all hands in 1868, I've got the
copy of the ship owners letter to his wife and a record of some of his ships. cheers
