This is the VSL Marco and the Harmid. Marco was actually nearly stopped ready to anchor and large ship didn't adjust course as they thought the Marco was continuing through. This was the large ships fault after investigation
It’s amazing how such gigantic ships moving so slowly in such a huge open ocean can manage to crash into each other. Edit: stop honking, we know you’re there

They look slow but they are at speed for such a large body and soo much energy is involved, even a slight contact results in considerable damage to both of them.
All that ocean and they still collide. When I was boating and fishing in the Florida Keys, twice I had the right of way and I had room to give way and I did to avoid a collision in all that open ocean.
@@masterenos thati complete nonsense. Under the IRPCS size has nothing to do with how the give way vessel is determined and what action it should take. Also, in this particular situation the vessel it was being filmed from was at anchor, so it was the vessel being filmed that was at fault.
aye, aye captain. I believe we'll impact tomorrow afternoon. We should sound the horn now to let them know we will impact them. In the mean time, Ill get some sleep.
I don't think Marco was underway at all, didn't see any sign of a wake while it is obvious the Iranian tanker was moving at some speed. Did see the port side anchor chain though from Marco.
With all the modern computer equipment controlling these ships you'd think a collision would be almost impossible. Having said that this seems like an incredibly busy shipping lane. Where is this?
This completely baffles me. I mean how can you miss or not miss a skyscraper laying on its side. These ships are giant. I just can't believe this happens. But it does. LOL.
One-half of all ships captains are proudly occupying the bottom of their graduating class, and there is that one (1) person in each and every class. -C
oh daaaaamn, that would be scary. Those ships are huge and could cause quite a bit of damage even though theyre not moving very fast, it seems like anyways. Also seems like all those ships are kinda too close together, huh?
Wow they apparently give out credentials to anyone who buys a box of Captain Crunch. How is this even possible with both ships having watch keepers responsible for alerting the officers and bridge crew who are using state of the art radar etc to avoid this very kind of incident!
Yeah, I can see how a couple of 600-meter objects being 'guided' at 20mph can hit each other in 2 square miles of empty space... it is definitely possible based on observing this video. Did you see how that guy was recording? Most of the time the camera was aimed and zoomed in at some random part of the other ship and nowhere near where the action was. If you can't even manage to take a video on a phone and you are put into a team to sail a ship....yeah...this can happen!
bolit45 insign88 wrong the small ship was at anchor, you can clearly see in the video. So he has the right of way and the bigger ship's captain is an a--hole and should not be piloting a ship period.
bolit45 insign88.... Colreg rule 2....... Applies here...... Y was the tanker sleeping..... Used all available means to attract the attention of the bulk carrier n take avoid action well in time......
@Infandous Ktenology they presented the bow of their ship so they would have less damage themselves. In the front of the ship theres seperate watertight compartments so if only one gets hit you can stay afloat. Colliding sideways will rip the hull up like the titanic. Its not supposed to be done but happens a lot. They were both at fault i think because the small ship has the responsibility to contact the big one and carry anchoring signals such as anchorlights /anchor ball to show they are anchored and i cant seem to find one.
0:53 you can see the ripples in the water those were Marco's previous tracks he was trying to cross this VLCC but came short.Dropped anchor to avoid collision but too late though.He has speed so clearly he was not at anchor.But really stupid mistake by both vessels.Clear visibility on a fucking perfeclty calm seas with superb weather.I don't understand how can you mess this one up.VLCC should have steered hard starboard and Marco hard port as early as possible.Why have a standoff?fucking assholes.The threat to marine environment was great on this one,Thats a fucking VLCC good God!
hard port ..that fact that the vessel is in your port .... and the tanker should alter to port coz she seen the portside meaning she need to alter .... colreg rule 16&17
It is apparent that this is an anchorage. Probably the vlcc was anchored as well and went under way, but there was not enough room to swing or the made a bad turn and run into rhe bulker. Vlcc's need long time to heave anchors. The wind and current might have set them too close onto the bulker, whe heaving anchor. In any case, the investigation report for the case won't be difficult to find.
Seeing and being able to do something about it are two entirely different things. Those ships can take 3/4 of a mile to 1 mile to turn. Usually collisions like this happen in close quarters like in the video or due to mechanical failure of some sort. Though failure to follow maritime laws also can be a cause. In maritime law the larger vessel has right of way.
@@AllanHazenDon’t know much about what happened here. You are correct 👍 except that between these boats, size doesn’t dictate who has right of way. Licensed capt here.
@@sailinghopes3943 Proper Captain here; the vessel underway has an obligation to avoid a vessel at anchor. So the tanker Master is at fault here.

little good that will do.
Can anyone see an anchor ball fitted?
I don't think Marco was underway at all, didn't see any sign of a wake while it is obvious the Iranian tanker was moving at some speed. Did see the port side anchor chain though from Marco.

Marco saw the port light, both constrained by draught .....Marco gets the bill.
Marco was at anchor and would have seen the starboard light so she wins on both counts.
When Master says, carry on we have enough space to cross her
