Ep 36. Gulf Coast Disaster
- April 18, 2011
Express Samina was a RORO passenger ferry (built in 1966) that operated in Greece and sunk in the evening (22.20) on Tuesday 26 September 2000 near the island of Paros. Eighty of the over 500 passengers were lost at sea. The fact that the crew did not help the passengers evacuate the sinking ferry contributed to the death toll.
