Some People Just Can't Drive a Boat

happened a few days ago in the Suez Canal. Colombo Express 1059’ Maersk Tanjong 1085’

And that is exactly why I no longer race Suezmax container ships.

2 things.

Did the ship on the right get stuck on a sand bar and the other ship couldn’t avoid it?

I am surprised by the lack of wake produced by those ships

That’s what it looked like, it was hung up and steered to deeper water. But gotta love a demo derby between 2 objects with a comnined weight of a zillion tons…
