KP Mids Sea Yr vs Annapolis Mids Summer Cruise

[KPEngineer]

Pretty clear it was mechanical in nature. Vessel lost power 4min prior to impact.

I will be surprised if the pilots had anything to do with this incident. Hard to pilot a vessel with no steering or propulsion. Capt is still in command even when pilots are onboard.

Agreed. It looks pretty clear the ship lost power prior to striking the bridge.

Agreed. The ship went completely dark just prior to the collision.

It was an "Allision", not a "Collision"
