Book Description
A remembrance of one horrific disaster-the 1983 accident involving the drill ship Eniwetok that killed seven cable car passengers-combined with words of caution about another waiting to happen. Captain Joki, the Eniwetok's skipper at the time of the unfortunate accident, offers a powerful description of the current situation in the Gulf of Finland, where more ships carrying oil and bulk chemicals pass through every year. It is, Captain Joki warns, an environmental powder keg about to explode.
