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.
