shipping containers overboard
 

Just been reading on the net that they reckon up to 10000 steel shipping containers are lost from ships every year and there was a link to this video on youtube, so when your freshly imported scoob arrives at the dock maybe this is why it not in the same prestine condition as it was when first driven onto the boat !!

maybe this shipment is on its way to Keighley trade centre ???!!!!

If pikeys ran ships, that would be what it would look like. Exposed to the spray, not tied down and some without even the handbrake on....

You got to be kidding, that's just absurd

Is that a scooby at 0.05 seconds ?

mmm, without winter tyres -- what the fvck do you expect

bumper cars on a ship...:D

Another dodgy Russian deal by the looks

I don't understand what they thought would happen to them :cuckoo:

We've had a couple of containers go overboard on shipments abroad, from a work point of view it's great, because it's a guaranteed manufacturing job, without the ballache of designing it again first :thumb:

From a shipping point of view I believe it's not so good, apparently most containers have slight positive, or neutral buoyancy, and thus sink very slowly and near silently, making themselves the biggest single hazard to submariners the world over on the way down :eek:

Those yellow plastic ducks are still bobbing about on the world's oceans. Apparently a great deal has been learned about ocean currents from their wanderings

Abromovich's.??

Imagine smacking into one at 15 knots in the dead of night ( sailing ) . :eek:
Harder even than a sleeping whale
