This is the VSL Marco and the Harmid. Marco was actually nearly stopped ready to anchor and large ship didn't adjust course as they thought the Marco was continuing through. This was the large ships fault after investigation
It’s amazing how such gigantic ships moving so slowly in such a huge open ocean can manage to crash into each other. Edit: stop honking, we know you’re there

They look slow but they are at speed for such a large body and soo much energy is involved, even a slight contact results in considerable damage to both of them.
All that ocean and they still collide. When I was boating and fishing in the Florida Keys, twice I had the right of way and I had room to give way and I did to avoid a collision in all that open ocean.
With all the modern computer equipment controlling these ships you'd think a collision would be almost impossible. Having said that this seems like an incredibly busy shipping lane. Where is this?
I don't think Marco was underway at all, didn't see any sign of a wake while it is obvious the Iranian tanker was moving at some speed. Did see the port side anchor chain though from Marco.
aye, aye captain. I believe we'll impact tomorrow afternoon. We should sound the horn now to let them know we will impact them. In the mean time, Ill get some sleep.
malikov togrul Today’s modern tankers have Double Hulling, They have two layers just like a double bottom on a modern cruise ship. The 2 layer cover the bottom to the water line. Sometimes to the deck, Your on point, they most likely busted the first layer.
Not entirely correct. Freighters have such a huge difference between loaded and unloaded weight, that they need large ballast tanks to prevent being too high in the water when they're light. Ballast tanks also regulate hull stiffness, especially important for an ore carrier. Vessel safety is a tertiary concern, and environmental protection comes in fourth.
bolit45 insign88 wrong the small ship was at anchor, you can clearly see in the video. So he has the right of way and the bigger ship's captain is an a--hole and should not be piloting a ship period.
bolit45 insign88.... Colreg rule 2....... Applies here...... Y was the tanker sleeping..... Used all available means to attract the attention of the bulk carrier n take avoid action well in time......
@Infandous Ktenology they presented the bow of their ship so they would have less damage themselves. In the front of the ship theres seperate watertight compartments so if only one gets hit you can stay afloat. Colliding sideways will rip the hull up like the titanic. Its not supposed to be done but happens a lot. They were both at fault i think because the small ship has the responsibility to contact the big one and carry anchoring signals such as anchorlights /anchor ball to show they are anchored and i cant seem to find one.
0:53 you can see the ripples in the water those were Marco's previous tracks he was trying to cross this VLCC but came short.Dropped anchor to avoid collision but too late though.He has speed so clearly he was not at anchor.But really stupid mistake by both vessels.Clear visibility on a fucking perfeclty calm seas with superb weather.I don't understand how can you mess this one up.VLCC should have steered hard starboard and Marco hard port as early as possible.Why have a standoff?fucking assholes.The threat to marine environment was great on this one,Thats a fucking VLCC good God!
One-half of all ships captains are proudly occupying the bottom of their graduating class, and there is that one (1) person in each and every class. -C
Big ships believe in or not play chicken and this is very common as ships are in a hurry and both always think the have the right of way or put theirselves in a dangerous position to get other's to change course. It's a free for all out there.
This completely baffles me. I mean how can you miss or not miss a skyscraper laying on its side. These ships are giant. I just can't believe this happens. But it does. LOL.
oh daaaaamn, that would be scary. Those ships are huge and could cause quite a bit of damage even though theyre not moving very fast, it seems like anyways. Also seems like all those ships are kinda too close together, huh?
@@masterenos thati complete nonsense. Under the IRPCS size has nothing to do with how the give way vessel is determined and what action it should take. Also, in this particular situation the vessel it was being filmed from was at anchor, so it was the vessel being filmed that was at fault.
So reassuring seeing all those tankers hanging around together with such skilled operators and impeccably maintained craft. Horn works great.
lol

Notice how the constant blowing of the ships horn greatly reduced the amount of damage!
All ships do that in the event of a collision my guy

@@easystreet1888 they do that to alert all ships in the vicinity to know and for the crew to make alarm to proceed to their distinctive responsibilities in case of that emergency...
Agreed. It would be a lot more useful if they just gave a few blasts every ten seconds and give people time to think and react properly.

FYI constant horn blowing is used in to alert other ships in the vicinity of the incident.
The sound of the whistle alerted the crew what had happened
Water wet when splash on you.
Hitting a parked ship at anchor is not going to look good on your resume.
It's not on anchor , it's making way
@@vbor8433 , negative Marco was anchored, in my opinion.
The port anchor is in the water but it’s laying back on it so maybe it was quickly dropped
Marcos is anchored ..its nuc i guess?

Looks like they both dropped Anchors at the end to swap insurance details!!!!

There is something called as 'momentum'. Try learning physics
The ships were just trying to find each other “Marco .....polo “
I can't believe that the Ocean is too small for ships to avoid each other.
3:48 Take their license plate, their license plate...
Why the blast of the horns?? will that prevent a collision??
All that ocean and they still collide. When I was boating and fishing in the Florida Keys, twice I had the right of way and I had room to give way and I did to avoid a collision in all that open ocean.
Right? I have a tiller drive jon boat and I aint never hit nothin!
No looked out ?
Is that in the Singapore straits
Capt you did an amazing job..
That's high steaks right there, hotdamn !!
I am surprised that there appears to be so little damage
So what disciplinary action results from a collision such as this?
So do we stop and exchange insurance or just drive on?
heard over the radio right after the collision - "now look wut u dun dun"
Why does the smaller tanker keep turning into the larger tanker whom is turning away as you can see in the wake?
Is it really that hard for ships to miss each other in open water?
that'll rub right out with a couple hundred gallons of buffing compound!!

How it happened ،how a bulk carrier collided with a tanker
was texting.
xD
😂😂😂
When Master says, carry on we have enough space to cross her
Just like any accident, the horn got stuck.
Looks like people over there drive ships as bad as they drive cars
where happen this collision
Look the VLCC's wake to port! The other vessel was anchored...
Great camera work Stevie wonder
At 3:00 the port side anchor chain on the Marco is visible. Looks like she broke anchor and no one was in control.
They probably dropped it to help the boat cut left
little good that will do.
Can anyone see an anchor ball fitted?
I don't think Marco was underway at all, didn't see any sign of a wake while it is obvious the Iranian tanker was moving at some speed. Did see the port side anchor chain though from Marco.
At 2:29 you can hear an anchor being let out, but it doesnt look like marco was under way at all.
How about pointing the camera at the point of impact???
Is this an accident or try to lose weight?
How to sideswipe an anchored ship.
That takes some "skill"!
Now, take (out) a bow.
Does blowing the horn soften the impact or something?
To alert vessels in vicinity according the incindent
Capt Apu it's back to the quickie Mart for you.
what were those powerful engines doing ?
It's pretty crowded with ships in this area.. Where is it?

Marco saw the port light, both constrained by draught .....Marco gets the bill.
Marco was at anchor and would have seen the starboard light so she wins on both counts.
