Hustler Sinking
| |
The Hustler is towed by another tug and placed into position. | |
| |
With her sea cocks open, alone she sat, taking on water just waiting for the inevitable. | |
| |
The waiting becomes tiresome, so the impatient tug crew try pumping water into her slowly flooding hull. | |
| |
Her stern becomes heavy. | |
| |
She starts to list to starboard. | |
| |
It looks like she's going to go down sideways.... | |
| |
Water rushes over her transome into the engine room and down she goes, stern first. | |
| |
Within seconds the Hustler bumps the sandy bottom nestling between the Kos and Melbourne. |
