How careless of the Norwegians. They should paint their coastline in high Vis.

terrible reporting - fine with the facts and all that

but what we need to know is whether or not anyone said

"You can;t park that there mate!"

We need to know what type of chain care he is using.

No Hi-Vis either, allegedly

The driver of that boat must be a right anchor.

It's registered in Cyprus, just goes to prove that you should beware Greek (Cypriots) bearing gifts!

Serious comment now.
There was only one person on watch at the time and they fell asleep and have been arrested.
Most shipping incidents seem to involve someone falling asleep. Surely there are routes about how many people should be on deck at any one time. Plus, technology nowadays can tell if you are asleep.
My car knows if I’m not holding the wheel or looking at the road, surely massive boats can be fitted with the same technology.

Its typical Scananavian laid backness. He did not even wake up. In the morning he would have been making them all coffe and breakfast.

That's not what Slarty Bartfast won the award for though, so, no.

 

[ebikeerwidnes]

Seeing as he didn;t wake up when a damn great ship crashed into his garden

I want to know how many he had the night before??
and of what??

It also begs the question, If that's a drunken evenings Amazon shopping, how much did he spend!

That's pretty efficient shipping I'd suggest!! 🤣

It's the third time the same vessel has run aground.
