Big hole found in hull of salvaged tour boat
AYUTTHAYA – The Marine Department is placing blame on the helmsman for the sinking of a Chao Phraya ferry boat and drowning of 28 passengers after a big hole was found in the salvaged vessel’s hull.
Withaya Yamoung, director of the Marine Office 2 in Ayutthaya province, said on Wednesday the size of the hole in the Sombat Mongkolchai Tabtim’s hull clearly showed it hit hard against a solid submerged object and testified to the driver’s recklessness.
