Vast, dark, quiet. An Italian cargo liner carrying munitions to Italian East Africa, shadowed by the British at Port Sudan. On 10 June 1940, hearing on the radio that Italy had declared war, Captain Muiesan mustered his crew for a fake lifeboat drill and quietly opened her seacocks so the British could never take the cargo. She sank in full view of her captors. Anchorage: Liveaboard from Port Sudan; check current security/entry advisories. Hazards: Liveaboard from Port Sudan; check current security/entry advisories. Meer
