Exactly as I said - full reverse on a single screw prop walks the ship's stern to port - pushing the bow starboard in perspective.


They dropped the port anchor which would also cause a veer.
If the 55000 hp figure is correct there is still a lag. A drag boat this ain't.
Anyone know the winddirection?

Dropping anchor ain't gonna stop it dead in it's tracks.
