Passenger Ferry Sinks in Heavy Seas off Papua New Guinea, Dozens Feared Dead (gcaptain.com)

A Papua-New Guinea (PNG) flagged passenger ship/RoRo sunk yesterday in heavy seas off the eastern coast of Papua New Guinea. 350 people are reported to have been on board the vessel.

Australian Foreign Minister Kevin Rudd said the MV Rabaul Queen was believed to have sunk while traveling from Kimbe to Lae, in Papua New Guinea, at around 7.30am yesterday morning, Canberra time.

“Our hearts go out to those affected by the sinking of the MV Rabaul Queen,” Mr Rudd said.

“I spoke to my counterpart, PNG Foreign Minister Ano Pala, earlier today to inform him that Australia stands ready to offer all necessary assistance.”

The Australia Maritime Safety Authority (AMSA) is currently providing assistance to Papua New Guinea and eight merchant vessels remain on scene. 238 survivors have so far been recovered by five of the ships.

Australia Prime Minister Julia Gillard spoke with reporters in Melbourne yesterday:

“This is obviously a major tragedy. Given the likely very high loss of life here, I think when this news comes to the attention of Australians around the country they will be thinking about the people of PNG as they respond to this tragedy.”

It is expected that the five ships will passage towards Lae overnight. Arrangements for transferring survivors will be made by PNG authorities.

Earlier reports of fine weather conditions have been contradicted by vessels on scene. There are currently strong north-westerly winds at 40kts, and a five-metre sea swell.

Noored laevajuhid osalesid Tartu Maratonil.

19. veebruaril sõideti 41. Tartu Maraton ning finišeerijaid oli kokku rohkem kui viimastel aastatel – 6750. Nii suurt arvu lõpetajaid on Tartu Maraton varasemalt näinud vaid viiel korral, viimati 1987. aastal. Eesti Laevajuhtide Liidu spordientusiastide au otsustasid sel korral kaitsata ka meie Liidu noored tulevased laevajuhid, kes ühtse meeskonnana starti asusid ja mis kõige tähtsam ka lõpetasid. Tegemist on väga mitmekülgsete ja aktiivsete noorte inimestega, kes on üheskoos ka varem erinevaid väljakutseid ette võtnud ja edukalt lõpule viinud! Eesti Laevajuhtide Liit avaldab tunnustust noortele laevajuhtidele ja soovib samasuurt edasipüüdlikkust ja visadust ka laevas karjääriredelil üles ronides...

Meie meeste tulemused olid siis:

Toomas Tammiste 2314, aeg 04.51.31

Taavi Part 4843, aeg 07.03.34

Indrek Triisberg 4881, aeg 07.08.43
