So it was drugs huh? When I heard two dead, and investigation underway, I figured it had to be drugs.

That's too bad.

Looks like those two divers went out on the buddy system.

ETA: RIP

Speers said the Seychelles police report includes observations about the presence of drugs and paraphernalia in the room where the two men were found dead, although the type of drug is unknown.
Could have been pot, so we don't know they OD'd yet.
Methinks it was boredom that killed them.

Yeah. That's got to be a really crap job. Sitting in a tiny cabin, probably breathing a mixture of diesel fumes and salt air, for months on end. Of course they took drugs. It's basically sitting in prison for a living.

I would imagine they were allowed out of their cabin.

If they asked nicely, I bet they could even go on deck.

Smart ass.
Heroin it is.

NAIROBI, Kenya (AP) - Police on the island nation of Seychelles say that two former U.S. Navy SEALs found dead aboard the ship Maersk Alabama died of respiratory failure and were suspected to have had heart attacks, possibly from drug use.

The police said Monday that a syringe and traces of heroin were found in their cabin. Police said samples are being sent to Mauritius for analysis to establish if the men had consumed “a substance” that could have caused the health failures.

I say it was a hit and the drugs are a red herring.

Could be, the rest of the crew pissed at these high paid bums that didn't help with the work, grabbed the best prostitutes in port, and farted on the guy behind them on the ladders.

Farting was the last straw.

There you go, Bruce, you have the plot for a bestseller. No, a movie.
