Walkabout Man Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 A few yachts sunk last night in Chalong bay. From the facebook posts i saw last night it looked like River Rovers was partially submerged and another yacht i dont recognise. Anyone know anything?

grumpyoldman Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 Do not, but I wonder if these big winds have anything to do with it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sebastion Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 River Rovers isnt reputable. Met a poor family at Dickies lighthouse that were waiting for them and they never showed up.They paid online a month before their trip. They were very disappointed so i took them down to Chalong pier and found them a good deal on a day trip. They were very nice people it was the least i could do. Not sure if it's thai or western owned but it's a horrible look for the island leaving people hanging like that. I have no sympathy for their boat.

Sebastion: Have contempt for the individual who owns that boat, but please: have sympathy for that boat, or any boat, for that matter. A boat is never to blame, only its Skipper, okay ?

grumpyoldman Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 You reckon? Not being a yachtie or a boat person, I thought someone who is might chime in with something else as a reason. Such as neglectful maintenance "you reckon"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
