Princess of the Orient
On September 19th 1998 having been beaten by Tropical Storm Vicki, The Princess Of The Orient, a 200m long 13,734 ton ferry, sank 40 miles south of Manila on its way to Cebu. She now rests in 125m of water and is the final resting place of some 150 souls that were lost that night.

Since that time only 7 other people had had the honour of seeing the ‘Princess’. A guest article by Mike Taylor.
