Actually, I love it when this happens. At least when it happens to China.

It will be interesting to learn what happened (assuming we ever do...China is not very open about anything). Curious it made it to a pier before sinking. I would be surprised if they built the thing in the open (we don't). Could be as simple as a ballast valve malfunctioning, flooding the ballast tanks. But it would be better if the actual compartments flooded. A lot more expensive to clean that all out, and replace equipment that would need to be replaced.
