Description:

Sri-Lanka flagged tanker MEGA PILOT (IMO6720937), anchored off Zeebrugge, on 1984.
I remember a minesweepers flotilla was in the vicinity for an exercise, and one of them put a dredging line on the tanker's chain and stayed trapped !

11 Jul 1986 - She was shelled near Kharg Island.
19 Feb 1987 - Arrived at Kaohsiung for demolition.
