Comment: Currently nominated at ITN, but not gaining much traction. Will withdraw if it is posted there. Lots of edits over the past days, I have tried to pick out the most significant contributors so far but happy for more to be added.

Suggestion

Did you know

HMNZS Manawanui 1948 (the year )is the same number of Days the Royal New Zealand Navy had HMMNZS Manawanui before she sank.

From and including: Friday, 7 June 2019

To, but not including Sunday, 6 October 2024

Result: 1948 days 110.151.28.154 (talk) 10:29, 11 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

That's not referenced anywhere, and doesn't have a good connection to the ship given its RNZN hull number was A09. Nick-D (talk) 00:40, 12 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

OK, an interesting coincidence, but not significant to anything. (Given enough data, coincidences can always be found.) BMJ-pdx (talk) 16:08, 4 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Dispute over the amount of oil leaked

The New Zealand government doesnt believe the ship has leaked 200,000 litres of oil. This story on the Australian ABC has a photo that purports to be of the sunken ship, which certainly does not show a massive oil spill. The NZ government also disputes the amount of diesel leaked.

Anchor

i wonder if an anchor was dropped when power stopped Or at all as it drifted? 2A00:23C6:F680:2C01:C8D:6DEE:C5DC:85C (talk) 12:38, 15 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The anchor was dropped before the ship hit the reef. Traumnovelle (talk) 04:54, 8 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
