Hope they're rescued in this weather.
Nice of The Mail to show us a picture of Rotterdam and also a map of The North Sea without Rotterdam on it. Maybe a line drawing of two ships colliding would help?

Believe Baltic ace has sunk as AIS signal has disappeared. plenty of searching vessels out there but 11 missing. The other vessel is badly damaged but not at risk of sinking.
