Heavy storms have been battering the British colony Gibraltar. Here's a link to pic of a transort freighter in distress. I don't know what became of the freighter. Doesn't look good. Distressed Freighter Cargo Ship Crashes

I would be amazed if the "Fedra" got out of that situation without sinking. Hopefully there was no loss of life.

Another informative link. The crew was very fortunate to be rescued with casualties. Thanks for the link.  Bob

Wow that's an amazing picture. Just imagine what it was like being inside the ship.

Amazing photos. I'm glad everyone was rescued. When I was there our captain told us that the area around the lighthouse and the Rock of Gibralter was very shallow. He was very careful to steer clear of the shallows and we were there during very calm weather.
