Glad the crew seem to be OK.

The Sea Fury looked and sounded lovely on Friday.

Looks badly damaged but crew appear fine.

Sad to see this and only just back from maintenance. They don't seem to have much luck with the Sea Fury as this is the third one that's been either written off or badly damaged. Looking at the pics, I expect it will be rebuilt, but it will be two or three years to do it, maybe more.
