  • Lloyd's Open Form, 100 years young
    IT HAS been a stormy few days around the coasts of northern Europe and several ships have got into trouble. One of them, the cargo ro-ro ferry Riverdance, got into trouble following damage caused by a very large wave. At one stage, the ship looked in grave danger of capsizing in the Irish Sea. Once again, helicopters from the UK and Ireland demonstrated their ability to rescue crew and passengers in horrendous conditions. Eventually, the ship was abandoned even by a core team of nine who stayed on to try to prevent the ship from running aground.
