I think the reason there aren't any proper pics of the Korean ship is the fact that the impact damage is on the left side of the hull... (or is it?)Coligny wrote: and the tanker had the right of the way... i'm pretty sure we are still footing the bill form the insurance claim...)

South Korea issued three verbal warnings to ship from the Communist north once the vessel had crossed a demarcation line late Tuesday morning, said Rear Adm. Lee Ki Sik of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. The South Koreans then fired a warning shot but when the North Korean vessel continued southward, the South Koreans opened fire.
The North Koreans returned fire before heading back, their ship damaged in the exchange, Lee said. There were no South Korean casualties, Lee said.
U.S. President Barack Obama is scheduled to visit South Korea as part of a trip to Asia beginning Thursday.
:wall:TOKYO, Dec. 4 (Xinhua) -- Two Japanese destroyers belonging to the Maritime Self Defense Force (MSDF) collided in the Pacific Ocean during an anti-piracy exercise on Friday morning, local media reported, citing the MSDF. Nobody was hurt in the collision and the ships sustained little damage.
The accident occurred at 8:45 a.m. Japan time, and led to the postponement of the anti-piracy exercise.
The ships, the Onami and the Sawagiri, are to return to their home bases, where investigations will look to find the cause of the collision.
The accident occurred 130 km south of Cape Ashizuri in Kochi Prefecture.
