Raise the Titanic!

Raise the Titanic

… was possibly the worst book I’ve ever read. Read the plot synopsis to get some idea of why.

In a totally unrelated turn of events, today comes the surprising news that the MSC Napoli has been refloated, after six months on the seabed off Branscombe beach. The news was surprising to me, anyway, as I’d only recently written the chapter which included info on how to get past the now-missing wreck! No one is sure (or is revealing) what will happen to the Napoli now, but one possibility under consideration is that it will be sunk again, in deeper water!

In the meantime, this seems like a good excuse to revisit our January trip to the Napoli, made just a week after it was beached …

About

Over the past eighteen months I have researched, photographed and written a sea kayaking guide to the South West of England; from the Bristol Channel to the Isle of Wight. I have been using this blog to keep folk updated as to my progress and to reveal some of the wonderful scenery, culture and wildlife of this little corner of England.
