Sorry, my old comment was inaccurate...
I was crew member of the STS Johann Smidt during this time. We sailed from Hamburg, Germany to central America and back, this happened during the way back, after a severe storm destroyed part of the main sail and damaged the rudder (small loss of fluid, no great deal). The captain is a retired commercial captain, he did this as a volunteer. In the end, insurance paid for everything, the cause was probably a failure in the engine control electronics.

@sjem618 yeeowch....ok...but then you can sue the harbor pilot (who should be bonded at least).
-
@plbuster Harbor pilots make the same mistakes.
-
not a bad idea really, jam the bow between a gangway and dock side to hold the boat in place like a line in a cam cleat which saves time messing about with mooring lines.
-
And THAT is why large vessels need a harbor pilot aboard.

The captain must have lost his job over that one! The sails were down! so he can't blame the wind!

The sails that you can see are all tattered and ripped. Apparently, this ship had a rough time of it off shore. It was being guided by an emergency pilot boat and it still crashed. Bermuda was a little upset because this paticular cat walf had just been installed at considerable expense. It was just amazing to see this whole thing unfold. I am glad you enjoyed it.
