I hope all the boat pictures were all faked - the boat seems too high to be full and its tipped when there are no waves? Does it use the same computer program as that tipped over love boat? Hey computer hackers can this boat be salvaged?

Had there been at least 1/3 Brilliant Black in the scheme, it wouldn't have sunk a probably would have magically floated completely above the surface of the water to Tacoma.

If they take off the captain and the crew she is ripe for salvage - The hull is still intact, wonder how the ballast chambers are arranged - here is our new 8 movie - haunted ship, approaching storm, brave crab fishermen, a treasure load of 8s - wonder how water tight the containers are and if they could be floated independantly - Would the ship right itself if they dropped the cargo? Need a big barge with a big crane....

Even more proof that the ship is cursed
Here's some post updates to that listed Cougar Ace...
From http://www.komo4.com/stories/44678.htm
"Member Of Salvage Team Dies In Accident On Listing Ship
July 31, 2006
By Associated Press
ANCHORAGE, ALASKA - A naval architect from Seattle died in a fall on board an auto-carrying ship that is drifting on it side in the north Pacific.
The Coast Guard says he was part of a salvage team assessing the Cougar Ace Sunday when he fell about 80 feet and was knocked unconscious.
He was taken to a Coast Guard cutter where he was declared dead. His name has not been released.
The 654-foot Cougar Ace has been drifting more than a week near the Aleutian Islands, after tipping on its side while the crew was adjusting the ballast.
The ship is loaded with nearly 5,000 cars, mostly Mazdas that were destined for delivering in Vancouver, British Columbia, and Tacoma."
... accident you say?!? Could there be a continuting correlation to the silver cursed RX-8 possibly on board?
