I guess this could be true - but there is there fair share of storms on the
Pacific and crossing the Atlantic as well.  The sea container ships that I
have seen look pretty sturdy to me!  Who knows what reason it might be -
this is all speculation as we aren't there! :)

Not true....
There is such a thing as hurricane season down there in the gulf...
and I believe they've just finished with it...
perhaps the freighter was diverted dut to storm?
