Wtf? The damn ship lost power so what

[@STANUTS]

@@viewer4life NTSB Reports could take months to typically a year. Lots of variables to look at. I'm guessing that one of the most challenging aspects of this investigation will be cataloging the previous inspections of that ship, and reviewing past procedures made to make any repairs etc etc Components of that ships computer systems will be evaluated & examined.This is no ordinary vessel. They will also look into the procedures & checklists prior to leaving port. Information will be kept minimal to the public until investigations are completed for "Insurance claim purposes" & whatnot. But they will most definitely find out if it was bad fuel, fire, bad engine (Engines go bad......Picture a car engine hauling a load of 400 fully loaded locomotives as an example) An engine powerful enough to do this feat would have some fairly complicated parts. If something went bad with it, they would disassemble it to find out what part failed. LOTS OF WORK, LOTS OF INVESTIGATION, LOTS OF TIME. For sure, a whole bunch to look at.

That wasn't a piece or a part of the Key bridge. It appears to simply be a stabilizing piling that the crane barge uses to held hold the barge in place while the crane is in operation. It is difficult to see but the piling is more of a reddish/rust color while the Key bridge has a bright battleship grey color.

[@sinceforever]

The larger American economy is impacted by this. We suffer more the longer it takes to deal with this. Getting the ships insurance to pay will happen down the road, once the evidence has been collected, a proper investigation has been completed, and lawyers do their thing in court. But that could be years down the road. The best thing to do in the mean time is eat the cost and get this critical port open. Remember, it is a primary port for the import of vehicles and farm equipment, and has already put 8,000 people out of work in the greater Baltimore/Maryland area.
