[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Masts have a fixed height. The Brooklyn Bridge also has a fixed height. This should never have happened. When do the manslaughter charges get filed.[/quote] That was my first thought. A power outage does not alter basic geometry conflicts. That Mexican training vessel had a lot more problems than the power outage. One has to wonder about its level of training.[/quote] True, but would a power outage keep them from stopping or turning? [/quote] [b]How do you think a boat this size stops or turns?[/b] They do so by reversing the engines, which wouldn't have been working if there was a power outage.[/quote] As it's a tall ship, I would think it's something to do with the sails and tacking, but what do I know. [/quote] Dozens of sailors sitting up on the sails/mast they were not being used to steer the boat. [/quote]
