Abandoned Cruise Ship

Salvage attempts
Shortly after, an underwater survey of the ship was conducted by an Australian salvage company that quickly declared the Discoverer a “constructive loss”. At the time, the ship had already started being ransacked by the locals, who were undergoing a civil war.

Quickly developing a 46-degree list, tidal activity further damaged the ship and salvage companies backed away from the recovery, after an attempt in the year of the accident which was aborted after gunshots were exchanged with the local tribe. The ship was inevitably left to rust.
