Chao Praya Boat Sinks

Post by PeteC »

A close call for 100 passengers this morning on the Chao Praya. Says they found a hole in the bottom of the boat. I wonder if stray submerged log, or just rotten and not inspected. :idea: Pete :cheers:

Lucky for those onboard that it sank like that and didn't capsize.
