1 It was supposed to be an evening cruise to celebrate the completion of one of the Gulf kingdoms most prestigious building projects， the twin towers of the Bahrain World Trade Centre. 2 But even before the ship， an old Arab dhow， left the dock near the Marina Club at Manama there were signs that something was wrong. Jai Kumar George， an Indian engineering consultant who had worked on the towers for 18 months， felt uneasy as he gathered with his friends on the pier， ready to board at 8 p.m. on Thursday. "The boat was oscillating from one side to another. Glasses and bottles were falling down on to the pier even before we left，" he told the Guardian. 3 Others were worried that the ship was overcrowded. Raymond Austin， 50， a Briton who works for a concrete company in Bahrain， decided not to board. Isaal-Qobaisi， who owned the vessel， told the Gulf Daily News there were too many people on board and the captain had initially refused to leave the dock. Bahrains interior ministry said as many as 14 people disembarked before the ship sailed. There were 126 guests left on the cruise. 4 Less than two hours later， as the ship took a sharp left turn less than a mile off the coast， it capsized， flipping over in seconds. Up to 57 passengers were killed almost immediately， including 12 Britons. Rescuers pulled 67 survivors from the sea. Two passengers were still missing.
