Abandoned cargo ship runs aground on Cork coast

A pollution risk assessment will be carried out, but given the length of time the vessel has been adrift, it is not believed to pose an immediate risk.

The crew of the Irish Coast Guard helicopter, Rescue 117, has conducted an inspection of the vessel from the air.There were severe gusts of up to 120km/h along the Cork coast as Storm Dennis moved up along the western seaboard.

What do we do with it ?

What’s the cargo?

I'm not saying zombies, but

WTF lads, abandoned and adrift for a year? That's bleedin madness

Definitely zombies in the hold, care now Cork!

Abandoned for a year then runs aground in cork how unlucky is that.

How does a boat get left abandoned at sea? Surely the owners would want to sell it for scrap at least? How does that work?
