: LOL!!! My friend sent me the latest news on the wreck, and they
: said that the Captain and crew realized the ship was off course
: but "before they could check their charts and radar they
: had already run aground." My translation of that: When the
: crew heard a big "CRASH" they jumped up from their
: dominoes game and checked the charts to see exactly what it was
: they had hit!
: Good grief. It was bad when the ferry boat hit St. James, but an
: ocean vessel loaded with cargo... that's pretty insane.
Hmm....old rule, when you get lost, shut off the gas :)
Charging around with rocks about and not knowing where you are is just careless, good reason for the captain to spend some time ashore without a license and think about it.
