Quite scary - even after all these years - to read how a disaster is building up on the bridge.

The "Magdalena" had a splitted Deckhouse. She broke in two behind the wheelhouse part just in front of the accommodation part.

I wonder & keep wondering, but can not find an appropriate answer to my query: How did all these different sections of accommodation (5-off white sections with windows) come together in the cross-section of the ship (??) which is moreover without her bow part.
Does anybody have a trusty precise answer?
