A 95 year old mystery solved, well maybe. It is a clear, peaceful day when a British cargo vessel, the Asiatic Prince, departs America on a regular trip to Japan. She was carrying general cargo and valuable bullion. Eight days later, she sends out a distress call, and a rescue mission begins.
The search cannot find any trace of the ship, so the rumours start.
There were many reports in newspapers worldwide speculating the fate of the ship, her crew, and the bullion. Was there a mutiny, or did pirates attack the ship? There were suggestions that a meteorite or a tidal wave hit her. After extensive commercial and navy craft searches, no trace of the vessel or her crew has been found. The ship's fate is still a mystery, but we try to bring an up- to-date perspective on what occurred on that fateful day, 24 March 1928.
