The Costa Concordia struck a reef off the Tuscan coast tonight (Friday, January 13, 2012) at around 8:00pm. There were approximately 4,200 people on board including passengers and crew – most were safely evacuated, but three are confirmed dead and it is feared that at least three more may have perished in this awful tragedy. There is rumor that some passengers were jumping off of the ship as it was sinking. It is too early to know the full details of this event. Below are images of the ship as it was sinking. From the screen captures of our Ship Mate app, you can also see the last reported location (off the Tuscan Coast near Giglio) and the last available image transmitted from her web camera.
[update as of 12:05am - 8 passengers have been found dead]
My thoughts and prayers go out to all the people that was aboard this ship and the ones that have past. This is so sad.
Do you or are you going to make this program available for Mac & PC, it is a great program.
thanks
