As 2020 draws to a close and the 2021s approach, it is a good time to look back at the most popular articles of the past decade. A perennial favorite on ocean-sourced footware tops the list with more than 260,000 reads, followed by an assortment of headline-grabbing events – the 2010 fire aboard the Carnival Splendor, the Deepwater Horizon disaster, a drydock failure at a shipyard in the Caribbean, the Maersk Honam fire and the salvage of the Costa Concordia. Two popular retrospectives on the secret spy ship Glomar Explorer and the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina round out the list.
