On 27 September 1994, the car ferry Estonia departed from the Estonian capital of Tallin at 19.00 with 989 people on board heading for Stockholm. She never arrived. Six hours into the stormy crossing, the 15,000 ton ship sent out a desperate Mayday call. 28-minutes later, she had sunk to the bottom of the Baltic Sea, claiming the lives of 852 passengers and crew. It was Europe's worst post-war maritime disaster.
