Shipwrecks

Today I did a task on The Discoverer.
The discoverer was a cruise ship that was built in Germany in 1974. The ship wrecking occurred when a rock punctured the ships hull. It is located in Roderick Bay on Nggela Island. It made periodic voyages to the Antarctic polar regions to allow its passengers to observe ice floe moments. The rock punctured the hull on this ship on April 30, 2000. The rock was in the sea in Solomn Islands. The captain steered the ship into Roderick Bay and grounded it to stop sinking.
