    I'm guessing the crew stole it. There is a lot of organized crime in Russia. I don't think Somali pirates or Jesse have it.

    I'm thinkin' it's either the Bermuda Triange has shifted to the NE or the Sea Shepherd mistook it for a whaling ship and pelted it with stink bombs until it sank.

    I just bought a very beautiful ship yesterday. It looks so darn similar to the one in the news. What gives?

    PARIS — The French Defense Ministry says a Russian-manned cargo that vanished in the Atlantic last month has been found near Cape Verde.

    Ministry spokesman Capt. Jerome Baroe says Cape Verde coast guards have confirmed the Arctic Sea was discovered Friday afternoon about 520 miles (840 kilometers) off the former Portuguese colony off the West African coast. ...

    How weird is this part though:

    http://www.comcast.net/articles/news-world-europe/20090813/Missing.Ship/
    The ship's crew had reported a June 24 attack in Swedish waters by up to a dozen masked men, who they said tied them up, questioned them about drug trafficking, beat them and searched the freighter before leaving 12 hours later in a high-speed inflatable boat.
