[QUOTE="greybeard, post: 1426257, member: 18945"] Any of you vastly experienced blue water marine geniuses/clairvoyants care to elaborate or grace us with your inside information sources? CIC=Combat Information Center. In this age of cell phones among the crew, it's more than a little clear that the container ship did indeed hit the Fitzgerald. What went wrong is yet to be determined, but right now, I'd say it was definitely Fitzgerald's fault. Lookouts not posted or asleep, or radarman not paying attention--all a distinct possibility. Helm, CiC and local engineering each had the capability to reverse pitch if ordered to. Only helm has the ability to alter course thru rudder inputs. [/QUOTE]
