 I was so sad to hear about the passing of Robin Boltman, one of our hero's from the Oceanos.  Robin was a lovely man always joking!  Robin you will be sadly missed by everyone - Condolences to your family and friends, we were honored to have known you. 💔😭Your legacy will live on forever!  Thank you for all you did. I found these photos from our first Oceanos Reunion

I posed on Facebook to see if any of the passengers, crew or resuce people would be interested in having a 30 year reunion in 2021, somewhere on the East Coast of South Africa!  So I thought I might put it out there on the world wide web too.  If you are interested leave a comment here with your email address!

Andrew Pike has written a book about the Rescue of the ill fated cruise ship Oceanos, if you would like a copy please go to his website https://www.oceanosrescue.com and order a copy. I received my signed copy in the mail on Thursday and have recently started to read it, it looks really interesting.

Hi This is a message from Kate Szell on the "Oceanos Survivors & Friends" page on Facebook, maybe someone here may be able to help. Hello everyone, I'm helping make a weather documentary that includes a bit about the Oceanos sinking. We've got the OK from NBC to use some of the footage from their documentary but we want to contact those people who actually shot the footage to make sure

Hi Everyone, Please see e-mail I received below and if anyone can help please get in touch with Kate directly: I’m working for a UK TV production company and we’re making a series of programmes for BBC Earth and Channel 5 about extreme weather events.  We’re featuring a number of stories about British people who have got caught up in extreme weather events and one of our stories is

I get so tired of people stereotyping - Your nationality doesn't make you who you are - so many people have slated the Greeks in my posts on this blog, however I know there are so many Greek sailors that helped out when the Oceanos Sank, and if it were not for these Greek sailors I am sure a lot of lives would have been lost, especially of those who went in the life boats.   Just

I received an email from Emlyn Brown the other day, if you like me, snf youdon't know who Emlyn Brown is, then Google his name.  While searching for the wreck of the Waratah they came across the Oceanos lying on the sea bed, and he kindly sent me these photos.  They are quite eerie, and I wonder what is inside, would love to get some photos and footage of inside the ship now. &

Italian cruise ship hits rocks: A cruise ship ran aground off the west coast of Italy killing at least six people. See all the pictures from the dramatic evacuation.

Seems like another "heroic" captain has emerged from yet another cruise liner disaster, so I guess Captain Yanis Avranis will not be the only captain to have left his vessel with stranded passengers on board, wow the photos from this article of the sinking of the Costa Concordia, brought back so many horrific memories: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2086831/

Dear Sir/Madam, Hereby is I believe an exclusive photo of the operational team manning the Operational Post at Southern Air Command (Silvermine) on the evening of the sinking of the Oceanos. In this photo is a photograph of a Shackleton in the cockpit. Maybe you would like to “cut” that out as they were not used during the S&R. As you can imagine, that time of night, the Command

Hi Everyone, I just received these photos from Paulus Janse at the East London Museum.  I am sure they will bring back memories for a lot of survivors.

I had to share this with all of you, my 7 year old daughter told her friends at school that I was on the Titanic!  I thought that was priceless.
