Pdoggg Posted August 2, 2020 Share Posted August 2, 2020 A ferry from Koh Samui capsized two nautical miles (2.3 miles) before reaching Donsak pier on the mainland. 7 people are missing. Last night was quite windy on the Pattaya side of the Gulf of Thailand. The waves were kicking on Jomtien Beach. I love windy nights. If raining indoors; if not raining best time to be out and about. This was not a passenger ferry. There were a few garbage trucks and other vehicles on board. So far there are nine survivors. I guess it's a judgment call as when to operate in choppy waters. I suppose the standard might be looser for ferries without too many passengers. Quote Link to comment
