They did.. that what cause it to hit the bridge As it slew around the anchor.

I’m hearing that since the ship was on the proper line when it lost power. If they had done nothing, it would have continued on the straight line in the channel properly as they still had rudder controls

It was them trying to stop it Dropping the anchor and putting in reverse it when power came back on...That caused the ship to slew sidewise out of the channel and hit the bridge.

they dropped the port anchor which would have slung the ship the other way.
