The water that came through the open bow doors was subject to the free surface effect. They tried and failed to prosecute shoreside management. Bow doors now have an interlocked mechanism with indicator lights in the wheelhouse.
@@jonbonesmahomes7472 Have you seen a ferry leave port? Go astern, then turn around and leave for the open sea. Someone would have to be in the right place to see the bow door open and by the time they get to a telephone box to report it the ship was on her side.
This was so Sad , i was 17 at the time . In Portsmouth, me and a huge amount of People did a Charity Walk for this Sad Sinking of Zebrugga Disaster. RIP all Peoples. It Should never of Happened. 😢😢💔💔
This ferry I've been on! It's kinda a special ship to me someway because it's got my Surname plastered right across it! It'd be good to see the full thing this Quest channel is good for teasing! But they must think with doing that people will watch our channel or something but don't work like that as these video's aren't on the Quest documentaries!
Spring tides are hardly a rare occurrence... They're every fortnight after all. They meant the forward ballast was heavier than on a neap tide, sure, but hardly the "overall cause", just a contributing factor.
There are lots of spring tides. A few days every fortnight. The causes of this disaster came down to complacent practices and a company putting profits over safety.
remembering 3 people i knew who lost their lives that day, and all the other souls lost.

How is it possible that noone on the shore didnt see the door were opened when the ship was leaving the port?

Ik was een van de duikers, wij hebben 12 mense uit het wrack gehaald i neen watertemperatuur van 4 ! Graaden selsius.
It's odd that there were there no crew on the cargo deck of a large ship to report this.
I thought, the same , why no work Crew to see doors open , Strange ? 😮😪
Thank sharing video my friend like 👍👣🔔🔔⚒⚒⚒👣👣👣
So which way was it? Were the doors open at the front or the back?
Front
Pretty sure this was the boat I was due to be on as baby but the car broke down so we missed it.. rip all
Rip Amen 🙏.
These are naval architects, & non of them have mentioned the spring (very high) tide on that fateful night. The overall cause of the disaster. End of.

Why not the South korea failure of saving hundreds of lives off the coast of korea.
This is the ship on which the jackasses left the front door open?
It happened more than once, with no previous issues. Just add a very high tide. The rest is history.
