Hate when that happens

Gotta hate it when your fully insured out of business gigantic floating restaurant that only generates huge expenses and no income encounters “adverse conditions” while being towed and sinks in 1000 feet of water.

I have eaten there probably 4 or 5 times including a division party when I was on the CGN35! Sure glad I didn't miss that experience!

"One less buffet in the world" is probably a good thing.
