Though we never body shame, this vessel is infamous for its horrifically high body count. This week's episode explores the creation and destruction of the MV Salem Express, a RORO ferry of the 1960s-80s. After a series of mishaps, she was sold to the Samatour Shipping Company, which owned her during her final days. Join Colleen and Julia as they board her last routine journey of 36 hours over 450 miles and tell you the tale of one of the most infamous wrecks in the Red Sea.
