Hang on to your lunches, boys!

Bleh!

LOL[:D]

[Speedysteve]

You sure it's not the Kraken that is on the other side pushing the ship over?

[Nikademus]

Looks like one of Speedy's carriers after i torpedoed it.

[Speedysteve]

Pffft and how many of my CV's have you torpedoed bunny boiler?[;)]

[Nikademus]

Just one so far......

glug glug glug glug glug glug......

[rtrapasso]

WTF? It looks like the ship has had its spine bent 45 degrees in one direction and 30 degrees buckling in the center![X(][X(][X(]

Looked up the ship and it was decommissioned in 1946 but not scrapped until 1960 - no mention of severe damage from storm at first glance...

Looks like Hermes to me.....

[Nikademus]

Hermes wasn't a true carrier....she was a British version of a flat roofed car ferry.

[:'(]

[Speedysteve]

[:D] agreed.

As was my ickle poor excuse for a CVL.......you'll be the first to lose a real carrier. Infact Yorktown is lucky she isn't home to sharks already..............

[Nikademus]

Fortune favors the bold.

[Speedysteve]

Cool i'll be at PH within 2 days..........

[Nikademus]

My airforce and AA gunners can't wait!

[Speedysteve]

According to you i'll be fine...favouring the brave and all[;)]

[Nikademus]

Fortune favors the bold.....not the terminally stupid. [:D]

[Marc_Mitscher]

The angle in the photo is a bit misleading. there is a second carrier just behind Lunga Point.

Here is another photo which was taken around the same day.
