[post_page_title]The mystery of the Tamaya 1[/post_page_title]

The 210-foot long oil tanker was registered in Panama, and simply disappeared off the face of the Earth three weeks prior to beaching in Liberia, with all contact with its crew lost. When it reached Liberia’s shores, there was no one aboard – living or dead.
