@GrampianWarrior dear gramp..on a serious note you must be or have been a fisherman at some point in your life?..if so you must have some respect for the men of hull and grimsby who risked and lost their lives over decades fishing the north sea and artic waters in sidewinders!..l can understand you hateing us english but why our fishermen?..l have friends and familly who payed with their lives catching fish.

yes Davey it was a sad affair did you ever study the model tests they did and the enquiry reports , they even tested the model at sea showing her to be of sound design , I fished white sea , Faroe, and north sea and know the kind of weather that was the probable cause of the tragedy
