If you heard, while in the canal, two, essentially “canal captains” go aboard. They work for the canal and go aboard ships crossing it. They tell the ships crew basically what to do in terms of navigation. It’s usually their say over the normal captain while in the canal. Anyways, they were the ones on the ship that day. I doubt the ships regular captain was fired.

Acutally the ship was floated out. The tow boats couldnt do it alone so inflatwable ship floats were put under and around. Lifted the ship up the few feet needed for the tows to pull her away. The Evergiven was then told "no, you sail around Africa. No second chances through our canal"
