Hi Yvon,
Just today I saw your comment regarding this photo. I search for the photo in Google Earth, I found it... Plus other photos (more recent) on flickr. In the mean time, the cargo broke in two, actually only the first half is still outside the water. And you are right: almost 100% should be BRASOV.

From this series of very nice ships, only one has un-clear fate, AL BAHR AL SABAH ex BRASOV, and is reported 'Continued existence in doubt' by LR (2013).
I wonder this ship could be wrecked on Somalia coast, and visible on Google Earth in position 01°42'16"N & 044°45'42"E (see scene of 27 Jan 2004). A photo of Panoramio shows the wreck in back-ground.
Opinions will be welcome.
Regards,
Yvon
