Farah III

The Farah III was a container ship that was high-jacked/ran aground on the North West coast of Sri Lanka in 2006 and was used by the Tamil Tigers as the base for their sea operations. It’s about 150m long and lies like an ancient skeleton on the windswept beach of Mullaitivu. Once eroded by bullets it’s now weathered by the wind and sand, and has been recently dismantled and sold for scrap metal.
