another victim of winds. As the ships get bigger and the wind impacted
surfaces getting larger this will happen more and more. We had
reports of another ship in Caribbean recently getting a gash in the

What is large ship size in your opinion Joseph? The Europa was 53,872tons Which
is not huge by any of todays standards. About 800' long I believe.
