The whole sequence leading up to the allision is actually on video. The vessel is the Alaska state ferry Matanuska, the incident occurred in http://www.newsminer.com/report-faults-alaska-ferry-captain-for-dock-accident/article_783b9fd3-a401-5072-8833-157c6cdc6cf7.html"><a href="Petersburg, Ak. on May 7th, 2012. </a>
I'm Paul B and I'm a professional mariner and former but still occasionally a marine scientist. From commercial fishing in New England starting from age 8 to crewing on the largest ships in the world, to working on coastwise tugboats and oil barges. I married a Brazilian beauty queen and don't get to see her enough.
