I'm a sailor, the question is, why was this mega size transport ship entering the channel at night, without having tugs boats standing by, espicially if they were having generator or engine problems. I would have sailed back and forth staying outside the channel, or just anchored outside the channel till morning. I especially would not have approached the tight channel area and going under a bridge in the dark. It just shows a lack of seamanship. It was just dumb.

[@ChrisTopherBunnell]

That ship was held in Chile, it's last port, due to propulsion issues. They knew they had problems and didn't properly address them before entering our waters.

The current Sunday edition is a quarter of the size of the former daily version from twenty years ago and the price is more than double what it was twenty years ago. The last time I looked the classified section which used to be over 20 pages long is down to under half a page.

[@nunyabiznez6381]

Tug boats are only used to guide certain kinds of vessels into position to be piloted under their own power. The ship would not normally use tugs to go under that bridge and out to sea. They requested tugs when they lost power due to the inability to move on their own and the tugs would have been used in such an emergency had they gotten there in time. I think a more significant question is why they didn't drop anchor the moment they lost power. I am not an expert but if you are headed toward a structure and lost power and needed to stop the logical thing would be to drop anchor. Normally you simply steer out of the way or reverse engines if needed. But without power of course the only thing left would be to drop anchor though I'm guessing the anchor system is power assisted which with loss of power would prevent a dropping of anchor. If that is the case then I would be curious why there is not a system in place to allow for an emergency dropping of anchor in the event power is lost. Dropping anchor is easier than hoisting it. I would think it could be done simply by manually pulling out a lynch pin and letting gravity do the rest. Though it could be that with an anchor and chain of that size a controlled dropping is needed. Perhaps this will be addressed in future ship designs if this is the case.

Yep, that Trump is shameless!

The Biden crime family have no fear.

"I won't be a dictator, except on day 1."

[@carlingas666]

It’s cynical for him to say he wants to combat crime when he’s the biggest criminal. He has no shame

[@richbl1690]

For a party that used to be somewhat respectable, now not at all. Time to take out the garbage.

What happen to the cars first reported on the bridge.

I hope NBC will hire one of Harry's students and continue with these wonderful stories. I often noticed that Harry was in New England and what a wonderful place this is. Simple in some ways, but not out of touch with the rest of the world. Thanks NBC and Harry Smith.

I guess the economy must be BOOMING if people are flying all over the place just to see a solar eclipse. LOL $800. to sleep in a hotel/motel bed? PASS need to add that to my list of STUPID HUMAN TRICKS

NOT FOR DISABLED PEOPLE LIVING IN CAR ON SSDI 65YRS OLD PLUS 😢😢😢😢

[@nunyabiznez6381]

I have been in the path of multiple solar eclipses in my lifetime and I only felt the need to look at the first one decades ago. When you've seen one you've seen them all. Not to mention that you can't actually look at it directly without damaging your eyes. I honestly see no point, especially since there are so many more interesting things to see in the sky.

[@stevengarman4848]

I'm working a factory job, I live in my own house, and I am saving money for my future. So yeah, it's booming for me. Those who are willing to work and buy what they need can make it work.

@@stevengarman4848 I'm retired on my 3 acres in Hawaii ,a bank never had any part of. Sorry you're a wage slave, I've never punched a time card. I was always an independent contractor.

[@punapeter]

@@nunyabiznez6381 Yea I saw one in 78 or 79 in Oregon. No big deal. The lights were out for a few minutes. Seen one, you've seen it. I tell you what's worth spending money to go see. A towering lava fountain, better than Burning Man, lasts longer. More awesome.

Best wishes Harry Smith on your next adventure!

[@parislon6036]

Good luck Harry!❤

[@belindatrousdale4876]

And why don't we have seat belts on school buses?? We as parents are forced to put seat belts on our children but schools do not? I don't understand that!

[@heartborne123]

crypto fraud - 25 years in jail, a killer - 6 years. Very fair

[@Clark42EoC]

Both should have huge penalties.

[@fordsrestorations970]

See you later Harry, take care , goodbye.

[@rebeccagandi5258]

Thank You Lester!

[@btetschner]

Good luck Harry Smith! My first daily job was as a paper boy for the Grand Island Independent. Stay safe NBC News reporters! Thank you NBC Nightly News for the video.

[@retrobear9367]

A man who has 90 some indictments shouldn't be preaching "Law and Order". Just sayin...

[@GlennHeston]

Who knows crime better than a criminal!?

[@bambinaforever1402]

Those are FAKE indictments made by floppy joe because he is afraid of a strong rival and he can not rig election the second time. He tries everything to stay at power

[@dleaming1]

A President should be with the people and for the people. Three former President’s surrounded by 1%er’s but a true President of the people was honoring a fallen officer. I hope Trump wins by a landslide.

[@lambeauoriginal9062]

I don't buy the laced weed excuse.

[@IpodNutz]

It’s rainy? It’s slippery? It’s on the f’n water! What is a boat supposed to be?

[@user-pp1yp2ig4j]

Has anyone been to Baltimore, lately? The entire town is an empty, rotting infrastructure mess! Detroit and New Orleans, the same thing! Maybe, it's time to move on from what we've believed to be "Urban Renewal?" It's NOT working!!!!
