On the one hand, “They made me get drunk!” seems like a rather feeble basis for a lawsuit.

On the other hand, if the Captain refused to turn the ship when he was told there was a man overboard, then he deserves to be fired. But I don’t know if that is what actually happened.

I wonder how often he’s told someone went overboard.

The captain should be keelhauled.

stop the vessel, but the request was denied

if the Captain refused to turn the ship

Do you have any idea how long it takes a ship of that size to stop, let alone turn around?

The fact that the drunk broad didn't drown and is alive to sue tells me that appropriate steps were taken to save her .......
