It happens
If I remember correctly, I think there was talk that the company severely reprimanded him when he made that 160 mile diversion so he didn’t want to do the same thing again and lose his career. The fault lies with them and if what I’m remembering is correct, it lies a greater deal with the company.
We have a saying in the Navy. Storms are like women, you never know what they are going to do, and you can't trust them. A good CO., XO., Bosn', BMOW know how to listen to the sea and wind, you can tell when something is not right or something bad is coming. Never take any unnecessary risk. How many ships have to sink in storms because of stupid decisions!! This Capt. was gunning for his bonus and got everyone killed. Davy Jones is going to be pissed. The only people that should be going through storms are coasties because they have to save the dumb asses going into stuff like this. Mud ducks are crazy!! I am puzzled though, why was the fire mains charged!??!? And they didn't have an emergency shut off valve any place on that boat, and wtf why couldn't they just shut down the main! Not that I think it would have mattered at this point because even if they made corrections and damage control prevailed, they still had to go through the worse of the storm being DIW.
Seems to me that if there had been some bollards around the area of the fire system pump it wouldn't have mattered much if the chains broke.
Having to subscribe to an app to save your life seems flawed.
there's the "Swiss cheese model" of safety and accident analysis, and things like the chain in the car deck and the delay in the weather forecast are slices, but then you have a captain who just drilled straight through it all…
good god man this is the stuff of actual NIGHTMARES.
Amazing that the app didn't contain a clear warning about the out-of-date nature of the data!
Wow the shot at 3:55 is YTI terminal in the port of Los Angeles where I operate those blue cranes.
When looking at the weather station, surely there was a time showing, captain's advice was 12 hours behind! 🤔
The captain failed to do his duty of safety to the ship and crew and thus killed all 33 of his crew.
There were more than 1 reason for losing the ship.
1. The captain took the wrong route. You can go many times far beyond safety, but some day you have to face consequences. The storm was out there, but the ship could have taken a much safer route without significant (compared with losing 33 lifes and all cargo and the ship) losses.
2. The engines aren't constructed well for use in bad weather conditions. Strong wind and free rumbling cargo and a ship with 45° list – that is when you need the running engines most! But why is there no additional oil supply to the engine for stormy seas? That is stupidity in high level!
3. The fire main (the red thing connected with the sea water under the ship) was not enough protectet against free rumbling cargo. That is a big issue. If you put such a big hole in the bottom of your ship, you should make sure, it would not open without your ok.
4. The ship has no light weight air tanks to keep swimming even fully flooded. Why? Aren't 33 lifes worth the efford to make the ship unsinkable? The whole ship skin could be a double layer of steel with air between the layers.
The Captain put his ego first, instead of safety first. He should have taken a protected alternate route. Even if he had received up to date weather forecasts, things can change very quickly at sea.
A military ship would not have taken the same route. The Captain doomed 33 sailors.
Chose to slow it down to look at the names and faces.
The story of a gambler, a ship and a hurricane. Guess who lost?
You think the fire main would have a guard rail around it if it's in a cargo hold that carries vehicles for that very reason a chain braking 🤔
Hindsight is a wonderful thing, but, if it were me out there, I would have headed for the nearest safe port/shelter
"The dicks are now closer to the water" – I know they are sinking but, huh?
This is sad 😢 you don't have a chance in a hurricane🌀 if your ⛵ goes down
PROBABLY A DEMONCRAT
AN ERROGANT CAPTAIN THAT DOESN'T THINK HE SHOULD LISTEN TO HIS SHIPMATES, ABSOLUTELY DISGRACEFUL, THAT COST THE LIVES OF INNOCENT PEOPLE. S..A..D. ERROGANCE CAN BE A KILLER FOR ANYONE.
First time here… I subscribed. I very seldom do that.
Ship leaning to the right ?????????????????????????????? starboard surely ????????????????? lack of knowledge i think
Current Administration uses the same poor judgement but purposefully. MUTINY warranted to prevent total loss.
Sounds more like a murder suicide than anything remotely 'accidental'.
The blame like most is a chain, but not the chain your thinking of. A chain of events that on their own would be survivable but combined together results in disaster.
i got as far as time frame (6:20) when my theory kicked in. Something aboard his ship was either highly illegal / dangerous / or meant for evil purposes. Being the man you describe, he had to stop it from getting to Port?
This is called ; "Satan's Sail". The entire voyage was cursed from the onset. Folks did not conduct themselves properly from the git-go.
Murder by incompetence
Don't Mess With The Sea…DMWTS
Bless their Souls…
Captain Ahab without the whale.
Retired USN Boatswain Mate served six huge Amphib cargo ships. Griping down all cargo must be checked by crew Storm or not! Fire Main rupture and scuttle open! Fork truck not secured in cargo hole the forks went through hull middle of night. USS Fort McHenry! Oops Captain pissed!
As an engineer I have to ask why so many iffy bits were at play, from the oill sumps to single chains.
OMG I had no idea the El Faro was the Northern Lights! I saw the Northern Lights many times in the 90s up in Tacoma. Neat!
Click bait just to get views, smh so sad. Tragic story still.
By my count, there were five separate mistakes made by separate people that led to this loss. That seems about right. It is rarely one mistake that causes such drama. Naturally we will blame the Captain, because that's what we do, except when they are celebrities or very powerful people. El Faro and its crew join the unbroken chain of countless vessels lost transporting goods.
STUPID SKIPPER
Bro your face is trippy.
The captain developed a haughty character, he will deliver cargo no matter what.
Really gonna click bait me like it's 2015
I think the captain is at fault for that it wasn't the chain
What chain, didn't even show a picture of a chain 🙁
