Galway Docks Thor Gitta (sling breaks and boat hits the water)

In the process of hoisting a small passenger ferry onto the cargo ship, a sling breaks and the ferry falls back into the water. Unfortunately I wasn't quick enough to capture the hit and splash. You can see the slings and spreaders swinging wildly. Three crew members were on the ferry being hoisted (very unsafe) and they escaped with only minor injuries, it could have been much worse.
