    Honey, if you're thinking of September 1998 when a ferry went down with 430 people, it was Princess of the Orient.

    It's when the Dona Paz collided with an oil tanker in the Philippines. I read it in my encyclopedia, it's the worst maritime disaster in the world, after the Titanic sank in 1912. Around 3,000 died during that time.
