How could the angle of heel be reduced, if water continuously flowed into the superstructure?
The survivors then stated that the ship slowly sank, while the list increased. The ship was on the side at 01.30 hrs, when many survivors jumped into the water and their watches were broken and stopped. The survivors testimonies tally with the observations of the ‘Mariella’ – see above. It is very likely that the ship sank at 01.32-01.36 hrs. And therefore the ‘Estonia’ could not have turned at 01.16 hrs and drifted between 01.24-01.52 hrs. All this Huss knew or should have known in 1994.34 The Commission certainly knew it (later) and it was the main reason, why the Commission 1994 had great difficulties to explain the alleged (unproven) sequence of events – sudden listing at 01.15 hrs, ‘fragments’ falling off, and final sinking without capsize at about 01.54 hrs after >3 000 meters drifting. The Bow Ramp partially open The Commission had first stated 4 October 1994 that the bow ramp of the superstructure was only partially open (permitting an inflow of only 60-120 tons of water per mi
