The details of the sinking of this large bulk carrier are unknown at the time of writing. Local fisherman and skippers can offer no information on her demise. I have pieced together a possible scenario from the evidence found around the wreck since I first dived her in 1992. Her attitude and position give the first clue. The Grafton passage is the North or "up" lane of the separation channel for traffic through the Straits of Tiran. There have been many casualties here, the most recent being the Cunard liner Royal Viking Sun, which struck the reef only a few hundred yards away. A large reef patch reaches into the passage from Tiran Island and despite modern navigation aids the reef has caught many victims.
