That is so true. I’m his friend and I had already faced so many setbacks with this Kickstarter. It was supposed to ship in July. Literally the day I was announcing to my backers that it should arrive in the US soon and opened up our mobile app for photo magnet orders the ship was in the storm.
My sourcing partner / logistics team reports that our insurance will cover damage or loss. But it’s going to take several weeks just to sort through it all.
Here’s a picture of the ship: https://share.icloud.com/photos/0gLIQVJUHGxk2lkSGFrJ8-AYg https://share.icloud.com/photos/0gLIQVJUHGxk2lkSGFrJ8-AYg
- askvictor 6y agoThat picture is nuts. Strange that the container stacks seem to have fallen in both directions, almost alternating. Why would they do that?
- goldenchrome 6y agoRocking from left to right until the stacks topple. Randomized chance of going left or right.
- scottlamb 6y agoNot a mariner, but I'll guess for fun. I'd expect rows to fall at different times due to differences in weight or whatever. The ship was likely rolling between port and starboard. So I'd expect a roughly even split of which direction the container rows fall. Maybe they even fell strictly in sequence due to how they were secured to each other. There might even be a video of this happening, but probably not a real high-quality one in the weather conditions that caused this...
