she's stuck

container ship wedged across the Suez Canal... will an excavator free it ..?

 

A gust of wind caused it! Steering worn, wrong tyre pressures, tracking out???

 

Bad driving.

 

Don’t ships have parking sensors these days?

 

Whats the captains name? Anyone know her ?

 

Hasnt @Merlin Cat recently bought a boat?

 

Don't you have a pilot on board when traversing Suez?

 

I thought you had too, not a cheap service either from what I’ve seen

 

The ship owners arent looking forward to being held financially responsible for blocking global trade in that way.

It may need to be partly unloaded before it comes unstuck.

Just another post Brexit price hike on goods coming to us through the Canal, along with delays and shortages of far eastern products.

Just like 1973 again.

 

You do realise it's full of empi parts being shipped over, don't you

 

What's brexit got to do with it?

 

It was the pilots first day in the job,he'd only flown Jumbo's previously

 

Its another set of price rises caused by goods shortages.

 

Waiting for some boiler parts ,I bet I get told

Sorry mate there stuck in the suez

 

So it lost power in a sandstorm, this puts the little digger in perspective.



The price of oil is already rising ..

 

Just ram another container ship into it. That should shift it!

 

If there was, the Pilot is responsible, not the Captain, as far as I know.

 

The captain forgot it wasn't a sail boat and tried to tack upwind

 

I wouldn't want to be in your shoes when Alex sees this sonny Jim
