I discovered very unusual coincidence.

There is a Polish shipping and marine industries bi-weekly trade magazine.

The latest issue was sent to printers on Feb 7. The same day, when, in the evening Jokulfell sunk.
I saw the magazine printed out today as it came from the printers today. And I discovered on the front coer of this issue a photo from the port of Szczecin with two ships on it. One ship is half visible. The other ship is fully visible on the photo, in the center.
This is Jokulfell.

Obviously the material went to printers BEFORE the accident happened (but on the same day).

By this coincidence of the ship shown on the cover of the bi-weekly magazine and tragic events concerning that ship, by chance, the front cover of this magazine is very "up-to-date". :-(
