One report mentioned a Pilot was in control of the ship. Don’t know whether they would have worked for the Port, for the state or perhaps for the Feds, but that may well affect who pays for the casualties, the costs of clearing the channel to reopen the port, and building a new bridge. I’d wonder whether Pilot was a DEI hire. Local justice system likely searching for a way to blame, and bill, Trump for it.
Did you see the video?
The ship lost power.
Twice.
While attempting a tight turn.
Don’t matter who the pilot is.
After the first loss of power, the ship was doomed.
