The FS Mangoo, known simply as Mangoo was a ocean liner operated by the Cynthia Line that entered service in 1989. Built by X in West Damien shipyard, Auralia, she was christened 27 Tebax 1989 and began her maiden voyage 27 Tebax 1989. She was the first of her class, followed by sister ships FS Uraka, FS Mulya, and FS Ironey.

On 2 Enero 2000 in the early afternoon, Mangoo sailed into the Auralian Strait but struck a rock at 20:23 (AST) about 13 km (8.1 mi) north of Uraka, Auralia. This tore open a 43 m (141.1 ft) gash on the starboard side of her hull, which soon flooded parts of the engine room, cutting power from the engines and ship services. Several ships were dispatched to assist when her SNN message was received, but most were obliged to turn back due to the poor weather. The evacuation of Mangoo took over 3 hours, and of the 2,205 passengers and 850 crew known to be aboard, 72 have been confirmed dead including the ship's captain Jakub Vovinkel. The Mangoo fully sank at 23:47.[2]

She had a Diesel-electric power plant with a combined output of 63,400 kW (85,000 hp). These main generators provided power for all shipboard consumers from propulsion motors to hotel functions such as lighting and air conditioning. The ship was propelled by two geared turbines and twin screw. With 16 total decks, 12 of which are for passengers, Mangoo has a capacity of 2,219 total passengers and 850 crew members.

2000 sinking

In the late afternoon on the 2 Enero 2000, under captain Jakub Vovinkel, FS Mangoo departed the harbours of Sherley, Auralia, bound for Uraka. At 20:23 (AST), she struck a rock just 13 km (8.1 mi) north of Uraka. A 43 m (141.1 ft) long gash was made on the starboard side of her hull, filling 4 engine compartments with water, resulting in the loss of power and the failure of the propulsion which crippled the ship. Combined with the storm that begun at around 20:15, the vessel listed to the starboard side. Due to the strong winds, the ship was pushed some 3 km more away from the Urakan Peninsula. Several rescue ships were dispatched after reciving an SNN signal but were obliged to turn away due to the choppy weather. The evacuation of Mangoo via lifeboats lasted from 20:44 to the end of the ship's sinking at 23:47. There were 2,205 passengers and 850 crew onboard and during this time, around 2,000 people had been evacuated not counting crewmembers.
