  • I think its about 5-6 beaufort, but Baltic sea is really powerfull check out Polish ferry Jan Heweliusz on google. That night when Baltic took him it was 12 beaufort.

  • @camiilo87 True true, u are right but in that case it was crew error.

  • Now, i'd like to clarify, Avo Piht was not the captain of the Estonia. It was some guy named Anderssen (forgot his first name) Although he is a captain, Piht was just a passenger on the Estonia, he wasn't the one on command of the ship.

  • @jetrc2008 Thats right. You are right.

    But Avo Piht did surrvive, there are surrvivors that did se him.

  • @Kambanicity Yeah, but why are some people making a big deal about him surviving when he was just a passenger?

  • @jetrc2008 Beaucose he was on the Bridge

  • I was on another ferry in the Skageraak the night Estonia sunk. The weather was really bad. I cant imagine the horrors the passengers went though, going down with the ship like that.

  • @jetrc2008

    Because he was rescued, confirmed multiple times as a survivor and then he vanished without a trace. Had it only been Piht and not one single additional person, I suppose this could happen, but seven more people shared the same destiny. Rather coincidentally, they all shared the same life raft, they were all Estonian and all part of the ship's crew ... coincidence?

    The Captain of the Estonia that night was Arvo Andresson, by the way.

  • Witnesses also said Piht was last moments with Hannely and Hanka-Hannika Veide (Dancers)

    In first rescue list were they all, here's original pictures estline.ee/et/28091994

    Also in corrected list were they there, Stockholm hospital also first confirm it, but suddenly, 4 days lates, they all missing.

  • @Kambanicity Avo Piht dissapeared after being tranferred to Turku hospital, even tho there was footage when he is taken to hospital now they say they cant find it, Avo Piht is too nowhere to be found. Another man (i dont remeber name) was too transferred to many hospitals then he was found dead in the sea. The goverment warned his family not to discover it because "it could be very dangerous"

  • @Vivi289 852 people were killed. 501 swedish, 280 estonian, 10 finns and 19 from other countries like Latvia, Russia, Norway and Germany.

  • @swallat jaha men de var väll Mariella som kom dit först??

  • @kanneebannee Silja Europa som låg precis bakom Mariella har jag för mig

  • from what boat? Från vilken båt?

  • @jetrc2008 avo piht was the other captain of the ship, it was like that: one night was piht, one night was anderrssen, the night when Estonia sank, there was anderssen working as the captain but piht was aboard as a passenger
