It could have turned into a disaster if the people got trapped in the duck.Hope they dont put restrictions on this type of thing though.Been told that there was some staff problems with the company that runs it, don't know the details though.
It went down very fast,

Yes Martyn, i read of staffing problems too. Yesterday the operators reported that an old tyre had been found wrapped round the prop which in turn had damaged the hull.
