High Tech Cowboys of the Deep Seas: The Race to Save the Cougar Ace
Toot Toot, all aboard the S.S. FAIL boat! Remember hearing about that transport ship that was carrying a load of Mazdas that didn't quite PLUNGE to it's death? If not, I bet you have seen the images all over the internet at some point. The keel was completely out of the water and I suppose you can thank engineers for the ship not actually sinking due to watertight
