I watched the Zero Hour documentary about the Estonia recently. Man, that made the Zeebrugge Ferry sinking look like an incident on a boating lake. What a mess!

2021-02-05 20:52:09 +0000 UTCIn 2017 I was in the maritime museum in Tallin. They had a special exhibition about search and rescue topics. They showed how it is done today and the rescue equipment nowadays present on ships. One area was dedicated to the Estonia accident and an original rescue boat that was found on shore (without any survivors) was on display. Was very interesting and shocking how outdated the equipment on the Estonia was and how rescue was (not) organised in the baltic sea. Just one example is that for all large ships in the baltic sea heliports are now mandatory (During the Estonia rescue mission helicopters had to fly back to LAND to unload rescued persons).
