Back in the 90's I did a ship rescue from NY Harbor. A ships rudder had fallen off and Moran dispatched the M Moran to go tow it back to NY. I was an AB deck hand at the time. So we went to West Marine and bought a GPS hooked it up and headed for someplace around 4-500 miles west of the Azores. When we finally caught up with it using a single side band radio and our new GPS, It was absolutely beautiful. Not a sea over two feet since leaving NY. As soon as we got the wire on it. It started to blow a hell gale. Almost all the way back we took a beating. The CE an Irishman had to change a powerpac on one of the main EMD engines. How he did it is still a mystery to me, and I was even assisting him. He has since passed and was a very good friend of mine. I haven't thought about that trip in years. Moran doesn't even do ship rescues anymore. I hope everyone is ok on the Maersk ship.

I enjoy your show so much, Sal. 🥰 Even when it's awful news, you're an innately joyful person and spread joy without half trying. Thank you! [Edit: I'm not a Bot like the ones below.] ⬇️

@kristinen7611
So do we get to keep the contents in the containers since we rescued the ship?
@overwatch2671
Thanks for the update, professor. Now i now where my tennis shoes are
@Pompomgrenade
Sal, you're always ahead of the game 🏁
@Zak6959
That’s gonna be one heck of a tug specially out in the ocean. Wonder if it is similar to the ones they use for towing around oil platforms?
@volvo245
What exactly blew up? Oil mist in the main engine crank case? Electrical? Sabotage?
@Ixonyard
Is he filming this in a engine room? That hum in the backgroung is something else.
@mateozhou
I always wondered what Hank Shrader did in his free time
@george2113
That must be a very powerful tug.
@PlanetFrosty
Extra mileage charges likely applied to cargo?
@DarrellLancaster-l5q
Great news show. Thanks
@essiebessie661
Poor workers! I expect Maersk will take good care of the injured..
@johnvogt5847
Glad no fatalities. Hope their rescue is as uneventful as possible.
@Rasscasse
Thanks Sal

The lack of urgency suggests little concern for ship and contents. Hoping for loss settlements ?
