Who reported that?

Who reported that?

Some ships require tugs at different ports at 100 % tied guided while others need no tug assistance at all same with ports that have difficult maneuvers . This is a major port that has been functioning quite well for decades ,i suspect the pier re-enforcement was on the honey do list

Well folks this was probably a foreign flag ship where the slave labor makes 8$ a day. Untrained, un Inspected by the coast guard. Held together with tin foil, wire nuts and chewing gum.
Had they spent the money on trained employees and repairs to critical equipment this could have been avoided.
Or better yet call for tugs to assist you. If you know there is issues.
On 2 separate occasions I've had to make a decision to drop the stern hook or bow hook to stop the ships motion.
This whole thing could have been prevented.

Apparently this was the first woman hire that brings the ship into the harbor. Seems like it may be another brilliant DEI hire? It's working out great for the airlines.
Rebel, how much of the ship is computer controlled and attached to the Internet?

Gyro controlled auto pilot. 0 internet. We're 40 years old though. 2 men on bridge 24,7 sometimes more when in restricted maneuvering. Rivers, docking, locks. AB forward at the ready.

This article keeps saying he. Also apparently the second pilot was an apprentice and had no involvement.

The two minutes just before the bridge strike are missing from the otherwise perfect black box. Interesting.

I imagine there couldn't be anything important in those two minutes huh? And some wonder why people conspiracize.

iirc those black boxes require a power supply to record ,some newer ones have a battery back up but still the system is hard wired . too early to jump yet

Sounds like something or transportation secretary needs to get on top of. Or behind or whatever he does.

I don't think 2 minutes was enough time to turn into or away from the support...it looks like in the image it was heading that way for more than the last 2 minutes...dunno

I just can’t take info wars or Alex Jones seriously. Having had clearances in the past I think it is 100% correct that there are certain facts that can only come from certain places, and to reveal you know something can sometimes point to the source. I think it was a great show of cooperation we warned them at all considering we are, in fact, adversaries when it comes right down to it.
