Same ship wrecked twice by the same captain (1970 wreck)

Same ship wrecked twice by the same captain (1970 wreck)

Nouméa, New Caledonia (NC)

The strange story of the two "Ever Prosperity". They were twin ships ("Liberty ships"), they had same name and same base port in Monrovia, Liberia. The first "Ever Prosperity" went straight up on the West Coast barrier reef in 1965. The second one did exactly same in 1970. It was the same captain, a Korean man, who had been commanding each ship at the time of her grounding!
