Guess we won't see Bernard Lee playing THIS captain in the film version. Maybe Brad Dourif instead?

Just sit right back and you'll hear a tale,
A tale of a fateful trip
That started from this tropic port
Aboard this tiny ship.

The mate was a mighty sailing man,
The skipper brave and sure.
Five passengers set sail that day
For a three hour tour, a three hour tour.

An Epic fail.

This Cruise liner is massive.

Very interesting analysis. I wonder if the actual VDR data will match or if the Cruise company will fudge it. The cruise industry stands to loose much by this mishap.
