U.S. Coast Guard sinks Japanese boat washed away by tsunami
More here: http://www.cnn.com/2012/04/06/us/jap...html?hpt=hp_c2The shelling and sinking of a rust-stained fishing trawler in Alaskan waters ends its aimless voyage more than a year after a tsunami swept it off the east coast of Japan.
The U.S. Coast Guard said it opened fire on the roughly 200-foot trawler Thursday after it determined the "unmanned, unlit, unmarked vessel" posed a hazard to mariners and Alaska's marine environment.

Getting to sink a ship would be so much fun. I bet some gunners had a blast, no pun intended.

I would have been happy to warp a few barrels.
