    She was lost in the Barent Sea not Iceland.

    Any trawlerman will tell you, like i will, the seas off Norway are mountainous, the most dangerous point is turning while dodging. Stern trawlers did spy but not the way you think it was more photo taking and not all did this, the area is known for freak waves which have torn holes in tankers off Africa. No one should underestimate the power of the sea it bends steel handrails like they are made of butter, I’ve seen it. My opinion she was overwhelmed while turning. Let the boys rest in peace. The vessel could turn around during her sinking ,as
    As for a sub collision the Norwegian authorities and the yanks would have known as they have listening devices all over. The seismic listening equipment used for earthquakes would have alerted the Norwegians as it did with the Kursk. Finally no vessel is unsinkable.

      But could they rest in peace if it was otherwise?.. Maybe its fate and some kind of justice that folks are still on the case..

      The kursk? They got to the bottom of that didn't they!? Have you not seen " The Kursk A Submarine in Troubled Waters"? If you listened to what "NIST" has to say about 911 you be in about the same ball park with the Gaul malarkey! And no not all disasters are conspiracies!

      trawl doors have hit her as other skippers trawled over it thinking it was fish on the sonar

      yes all this was covered up from day one the navy knew where the Gaul was they sailed right over it I was a part of black op's watching Russian shipping and submarine movements our names were never listed by the government to deny everything I could tell you more but it still on a need to know! classified

    Utter bollocks, total cover up and as Anna Jeanette dixon says there was huge gash in the side. There was also a sosus cable found. The bridge was in tact etc etc etc. We will never know the real truth but it sure as hell wasn't fishing. What about the two navel personel on board. I could go on and on

    Only the poor crew knew exactly what happened that fateful day God Bless them 🙏. .. Everyone knows trawlers were asked to spy, take pictures etc.. I am sure they would have quite a a story to tell but would never be allowed to expose it..do the authorities think we are all daft.. Its bad enough to know you're going down but can you imagine what our lads felt with the knowledge of something More.... Silence of the lambs indeed..

      What the hell do you expect it's not like it was filmed in 2023 also if you think it's that bad then why are you even watching it. I thought it was a great video.Well done to the person who took there time and made it.
