Re: VIDEO: Ship hits Keys Bridge in Maryland (USA)
Procedure calls for dropping the anchor, that's what may of steered into the bridge. Unlikely that the anchor would have stopped a ship that size, that is not how anchors work. Also, looks like they ran out of time. Stick to being a food critic! "The 948-foot (288.95 m) vessel had experienced ...

Re: VIDEO: Ship hits Keys Bridge in Maryland (USA)
Lost power? Then why the sudden right turn? It seems to turn towards the pillar instead of trying to avoid it. Loss of power, loss of steerage, prevailing currents and wind? Last ditch effort (failed) to limit damage? Slightly more shocking is how vulnerable the bridge was to catastrophic damage fr...
