this is cool. the bow visor would have made the video better. if u watch all of them in order, it makes sense. by the way ,where did u get the model?

[gladnicke3]

I haven't done that modell.

[vexviper]

I remember this! This is when some dumbass failed to close the entry doors to the fairy after getting under way. And water and waves crashed inside the ship. What a waste.

[gladnicke3]

No, youre wrong. MV Estonia had a bowvisor, and during her trip in 1994 in bad weather, the visor broked at som instand, and falled of the ship and opened the car ramp so the the water entered the cardeck. They dont had the visor with on this model, because witness that water entered the cardeck, just before it falled of from the ferry.

15 years ago now, R.I.P Estonia and all the people that sank with her.

[Kambanicity]

Thats true. Explosives where found there. They used them to so they could detach the visor a week later . The swedish goverment knows that and a few of them recognized it

@vexviper i think you are talking about M/S Herald of Free Enterprise

[MrBane39]

People all of this nonsense about the visor is now immaterial

Recent video footage taken by an independent body clearly shows a hole in the side of the ship and when pieces of the metal were taken for expert examination 3/4 experts concluded that an explosion from within was the cause of the hole. The other expert said the test was inconclusive.

Why also was the bow visor' bolt, recovered from the sea thrown back into the sea once discovered by stenstrom when it would have prove him right

[vexviper]

@gladnicke3 Thanks for the correction. I was misinformed. :(

[SvenTviking]

The deckhouse on this model is sealed, so it didn't capsize as the real ship SHOULD have.

[nolifewithoutrc10]

how big is that model?

[poferryo]

@boomboomOO7 The model was constructed by an Investigation Branch to find out what effect the water had exactly on the ship. The model was used in a testing pool where the waves were created by a wave effect machine.

@vexviper I think you're thinking about the Herald of free Enterprise

[Naalaveli]

[DellTe71]

this model was build to scale 1:40 of the original ship.
