it has 4700 mazdas onboard, 1400 were bound for Tacoma, WA the others for Canada.



Water ballast will only function at something like 45 degrees, then it becomes more of a hinderence then a help, as you can see from the pics the boat has very little keel depth or weight, it's gonna take a lot to right it.



60% were mazda 3's and 30% were CX-7's
