An oil spill is “highly probable” from a grounded New Zealand navy ship which sank and caught fire off the coast of Samoa, the Pacific island nation’s acting prime minister said late Sunday.
Officials in Samoa are conducting an environmental impact assessment in the area where the ship sank on Sunday morning, acting Prime Minister Tuala Tevaga Iosefo Ponifasio said in a statement.

This is why you don’t build ships out of cardboard or cardboard derivatives.
so papers right out then?
No paper, no string, no sellotape, rubber’s out. Um, they’ve got to have a steering wheel. There’s a minimum crew requirement.
