Georgios G Shipwreck
There are eerie tales about ‘Georgios G’, a mysterious British-made cargo ship that ran aground off the coastal city of Tabouk, north-west of Saudi Arabia, almost four decades ago and the bizarre circumstances which surrounded efforts to salvage the cargo of the vessel.
The wreckage of the ship, dubbed by some Saudis as the ‘Saudi Titanic,’ is one of the main tourist attractions in Hakal province, Sada Tabuk reported.
‘Georgios G’ was built in England after the end of the Second World War, and in 1958 was launched as a cargo liner owned by several individuals and companies.
