Fascinating story regarding a squid fishing boat that floated away following last year’s earthquake and tsunami that devastated Japan.  This Japanese craft has floated the seas since then, a rusted derelict that will, apparently, soon ground itself somewhere…

There’s something almost primal, romantic, even scary, about the concept of an abandoned ship.  A story like this should appeal to me…I’ve toyed with that idea of an abandoned craft in one of my novels.

If you’re not in the mood to read the article, the video I’ve embedded below shows a photograph of the derelict craft.
