Tanker Explodes, Sinks
Off US Coast - 2 Dead, 19 Missing
2-29-4
WASHINGTON (Reuters) -- Two seamen died and 19 were missing on
Saturday after a chemical tanker carrying 11,000 tons of ethanol
exploded and sank 50 miles off the Virginia coast, the U.S. Coast
Guard said.
The Bow Mariner, traveling from New York to Houston, Texas, caught
fire and exploded at roughly 6 p.m. off Chincoteague, northern
Virginia, and rescuers launched a massive search for survivors, said
Lt. Bobby Dye.
"We're being hampered by the dark and of course the chemicals in the
water, but the sea conditions are not too bad," he said, adding that
six crew were safe.
The crew of the Singapore-flagged vessel were believed to be Filipino
and Greek.
Industrial ethanol is used as a solvent in the manufacture of
varnishes and perfumes; as a preservative; in the preparation of
essences and flavorings; in many medicines and drugs; and as a fuel
and gasoline additive.
Dye said the environmental impact of the accident was very much on the
Coast Guard's mind, but the first priority was trying to save the
missing seamen. Two helicopters, a plane and a number of vessels were
involved in the search.

Clearly this is a Haitian voodoo retaliation random curse administered in haste
by the outgoing president
in a last ditch effort to secure vengeance against the
Dubya administration for not offering assistance and support for the regime.
