The aft tug has put all the weight on her starboard quarter and stood directly in the line of fire is people on the bank! I’m surprised the MSC wasn’t there making sure everyone was stood clear with the way H&S is today! ⚓️🦈
@@markhepworth dredging all over this area is poor at best just a very narrow passage channel for such a large ship. Takes but a hair out of place to catch the bulbous and drag it in to the bank... So yes steerage... Root cause.... Insufficient dredging...
@@ecossearthur I just don’t know how you can be so sure,keeping a long vessel in a dead straight channel is actually pretty hard,and even a medium wind can make it very difficult,problems with steerage are relatively common,but the most obvious potential is just plain old human error.
Because the ships propeller/rudder are embedded in the muddy bank,it would cause untold damage to the main engine and propulsion shafts if they were to start it .
Thanks for the update ... & really good drone video work 💯 👌
But we dont want music…
So you speak for the masses? Might at least hold a vote first.
Laws of Physics, and the angle of the dangle!!
Yeah, that's got many a lad into differculties. 😮
Good video work and you see how hard that tugboats must work, it is almost the same position as in the Panama canal last year,
Great vid and drone footage. Glad they got away 👍
What incredible weather.
An English version of that Suez thing of a bit ago
At least it stopped the threat of Viking raiders for a few days
Nice edit! 👍
I saw that ship in Wisbech docks yesterday. Glad it got sorted.
Top drone work, tnx
Nice bit of parking 🅿️😅

Probably due in part to insufficient dredging. False economy’..
100%
So steerage is obviously the most likely cause,why would you think it’s “probably due to insufficient dredging”....? 🤷♂️

Farmer with a tractor could a done that, bor.
Is there a slight list to starboard?
Yes slightly they transferred ballast water from the port side to reduce her draft
why did the ship's engines not provide some power to assist the tugs?

Потому что-винт и перо руля были в грунте реки.Под илом камни,погнули бы лопасти винта.
How it s a straight bit of river 🤠🔧⚓JB
Man made .... obviously
I would guess the effects of wind gusts.
It's such a narrow passage for ships to sail thru... Not much depth too...
