Wow.
Tugs need to be on-hand for just these types of problems.

Boats break. It’s rare, but it happens.

The tugs need to control them when they do.

Yup. Back in the day when I went to marine diesel tech school, they had a foreign ship come to port at Sturgeon Bay Wis for a minor repair. They denied a harbor pilot that was supposed to run the thing through the bridge and guess what happened.

The bridge was down for weeks.
