Hi Becky, thank you for that. They are doing fine thank you. There wasn't a lot online 13 years ago, still not that much now but I found some reports on Tradewinds that I will pass on to them. Take care. Pem.

Pem I know it was more than 13 years ago but I am truly sorry for yours , your sister's and her children's loss.How are they today?

My brother in law was the Captain of this ship and went down with it. He left two children and a wife. RIP

Joerg - thanks for that info.
