I'm having a hard time understanding this. As a former seafaring captain licensed by the Merchant Marines, I am familiar with navigating and the perils that exist, but this is perplexing. These two ships could never or should I say should never, under normal circumstances, collide with each other. My guess is there are millions of dollars of the most sophisticated equipment known to man on BOTH these vessels that SHOULD make this impossible, but yet.
We are not hearing even a hint of a possible explanation so it leads me to think the captains of both ships were in complete dereliction of duties and are both in a heap of shit. Life on a ship on the open sea can be mundane, but one can never let that let you stray from safety protocols.
