Recreation of final moments of the cargo vessel The Cooperator.  November 7th 1930. The Cooperator was cargo vessel on final voyage for the day.  A storm approached, gale force winds and high tide battered the vessel.  Three crew on board the vessel with a cargo of grain drifted into a swell and struck oncoming wave while navigating from Fenit to Tralee ShipCanal.
