Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire More folks stating the baltimore bridge was cyber

Hollywood needs to consult with the gifted individuals on this forum because there's more fictitious bulls hit put out here than all the packing houses in America combined!! Many a good movie could be made from the bulls hit dispensed here!!

Singapore is not China. Both parties named in the lawsuit (owner and mgmt co) are based out of Singapore.

Careful what you ask for...

A Q tweet or a post dated from 5 years ago would be enough.

I have some questions about what I saw in the videos. I am a licensed Offshore Installation Manager although for a floating oil and gas platform. I have been licensed for 20 years and know what US Flagged vessels are supposed to have. One thing that has been a priority during the last 3 USCG annual inspections is the response plan for loss of power. I realize this is a foreign flag vessel and probably has lower standards.
For ships, rigs and platforms that are inspected, backup power to maintain emergency lights, navigational aids, etc. are required. We had a battery bank system powering the Emergency Buss so we had lights to work in case Emergency generator didn't Auto start. Also fire detection, control system computers remained powered up.
This ship obviously lost engine and generator power but it went totally dark. That raises suspicions to me. I am thinking there should have been a battery system running at least the Nav lights on the masts and a few emergency lights until the backup generator was on load. Maybe they don't have that available but I can't imagine that they wouldn't. I have been on several foreign flagged vessels in the gulf and they have the same type systems Coast Guard requires.
I heard a chief engineer saying that foreign vessels have low standards poor maintenance and incompetent poorly trained crews. So who knows?
If they are going to enter our ports and knock out our infrastructure we need some changes to protect us.

All I know, and I have it from very good sources, is that the



ALIENS


caused it.

They're just getting to the bottom of it now to figure out if it was the Grays or the Lizards.

Fixed it for you.

Dude. Never let the facts get in the way of a good story.

Sheesh.

Let us never forget that the American Patriot Act was signed into law by a Republican President.

I've never seen any party in power, right down to the local level, refuse to use an emergency or tragedy to try to gain more power.

The US now has thousands of troops in active wars in SYria , Yemen. Russia, Ukraine Israel Lebanon , Red Sea

What does that have to do with a ship in Baltimore?

I am specifically referencing this event. If you have something to add about a ship in Baltimore, I'm all ears.


I would ❤️ for you to answer my question though...could be informative.

I think there's another side to publicly stating what happens in any given situation. We all want to think we have things figured out. It's human nature. The problem is a large part of information available to the public "us" is that it is coming from the internet. Every last website where people gather and discuss things like this event is also used as a propaganda arm for reasons that are not intended to good by people we never hear about. Sure we see the puppets like biden and his ilk but the folks that really hate freedom and anything decent are usually nameless to most of us. It's hard for most people to ignore the "fake" news and every other dubious source but an open mind not cluttered with junk is nice to have. Many here have said they no longer watch the news outlets. I'd say that's a good idea. Like it or not sites like this are being used by leftist every day to promote what they want.

While I feel we need some degree of isolationism I do not think this shipwreck was in any way an attack.

I tried to find out if she had more than one screw, but the info out there seemed pretty sketchy.......at least as far as my google-fu skills were capable of.

It was one of my first thoughts upon seeing the video, but it does seem these "scows" have one purpose and one prop will achieve that most days.

While that one video I found mentioned the side channel coming in on the left of the main channel (starboard stern of the ship) it didn't mention what stage and height of tide was running out that morning. A good high , full outgoing tide coming down that side channel would have had a decent effect on pushing that ship towards the part of the bridge it hit, especially coupled with the loss of power.

Like tug escorts to get these huge ships past critical structure?

Thanks Teal. I probably avoided wikipedia as some crap on there is just crap.

But damn, 55,000+ HP is a bunch. And on a single fixed pitch prop. Someone on one of the other threads sure got it correct. One purpose and one purpose only....get containers across and ocean as quickly and cheaply as possible.

A lot of wiki can be crap but for things like ship specs and the like, unlikely to be materially incorrect.
