Container Ship Reportedly "Lost Power" In NYC Harbor, Right Before Verrazzano-Narrows Bridge A massive container ship reportedly lost power on the Upper New York Bay - just before the Verrazzano-Narrows Bridge connecting the New York City boroughs of Staten Island and Brooklyn. According to Captain John Konrad, CEO of gCaptain, a New York City tugboat captain informed him that the 354-meter container ship APL QINGDAO "lost power while transiting New York harbor." "They had 3 escort tugs but 3 more were needed to bring her under control. They regained power & were brought to anchor near the verrazano bridge," the tugboat captain told Konrad.

They would have run aground before they hit the bridge support, so no.

I wonder how many of the crew have the Tic Toc app on their personal electronic devices?

Hmmm.........
I wouldn't be surprised if it was our own .gov doing this to encourage WW3 support.

I wonder how often this (lost power) happens and never made the news pre the Baltimore incident.

Who would guess... ships lose power. About as rare as a full moon.
Doesn't have [bleep] to do with climate change, tic toc, hacked navigation or anything else.

Probably a lot of deferred maintenance with the current economy.

If not for the recent shipping accident in Baltimore, I'd bet that this would have never even made the notional news cycle. The ship lost power but nothing got hit, they got it under control, and it got safely anchored. Things like this probably happen more often than we hear about. But now the MSM has to fear monger and sensationalize on it because of Baltimore. Any one recall how the Biden administration tried to blame that East Palestine Ohio train derailment/ chemical spill over a year ago on the previous administration? I bet they are working on an angle to blame the Trump administration for this new rash of maritime malfunctions. Either that or the ships guidance functions are being affected by climate change.

More and more whacknuts posting ludicrous theories on the internet. Mind control beams from outer space? Can't be coincidence because it keeps happening!

I see a pattern of inability to form reasoned thought.
