As redacted pointed out, the tugboats only take care of it out of port.
In motion it's on its own.
That said, I'm 99% this was a coordinated event.
And if so, it's HIGHLY sophisticated.
The timing was flawless, execution flawless.
In that way, it reminds me of the Russian mobilization in Syria the U.S. state dept. was quietly surprised by years back when "wiping out terrorists".

This legit?

 

[sparkuri]

This legit?

That's what I heard yesterday, among other things.
And apparently she had controlling interest in many.
Would be awesome, and totally unrelated to the Moscow attack I'm sure...

This legit?

There's one of those "readers added context" notes attached to that tweet saying:

Angela Chao was the CEO of Foremost Group and died on February 11, 2024. apnews.com/article/angela… The MS Dali was owned by Grace Ocean Private, chartered by Maersk, and managed by Synergy Marine Group. cbsnews.com/news/baltimore…

No idea whether any of that is true.

As of last night the department of transportation had still not interviewed the captain. Kind of like the DC police never interviewing the cop that shot Ashley Babbitt.

 

[Robbie Hart]

No way

This is why the rest of the world watches and laughs at Americans

I have no idea how a ship's black box is supposed to work, but I've seen some of those Air Crash Investigation episodes where aircraft lost power, and the black box stopped recording.

Given that the ship seemingly lost both main and backup power at the same time, thatcould explain the missing data.

Of course even if the missing data can be explained by the power cut, that doesn't rule out some sort of sabotage of the power system. Just saying that it might not be a slam dunk "Oh no the camera pointed at Epstein's cell wasn't working" kind of situation.

Oh no,this is like the footage of police brutality in jails when the cameras were found to be inoperable or not turned on at the time.

The ship did call for tugboats, they sent out a mayday call, and they requested to have the bridge shutdown prior to the collision.

First of all, it's a terrible thing and I hope that the best outcomes for those involved happens.

However, watching Americans mentally process something like this is wild.

The crew is still on the ship. Also, ships like this cannot be hacked remotely. They don't have a connection. If it was an self induced computer problem that caused the power outage, it would have to be done by someone on board.

The bow of the ship as run aground and is sitting on a gas pipeline.

Apparently, the insurance group the ship uses has about $3 billion worth of coverage, but that has to go to other shipping companies that have now been delayed, cleanup, families of the dead, the port, possibly workers who are impacted financially due to the port closing, as well as rebuilding the bridge.

All of that is going to take a very long time to sort out. In the meantime, the US government is footing the bill to get the ball rolling and reopen the port.

I am certain it is possible to hack a ship if you have enough resources, might take an inside man to install/alter the systems but I am certain it is possible.

There were dead that fell from bridge?

The construction crew that was on the bridge two whose bodies have been found and six that have not.
