    At least a million... That's not counting any damage done to the mammoth ship.

    Wow and the guy on deck was just walking around watching instead of running, shouting at the captain to stop. Not sure if the tug was much of a factor because the ship was under power the whole time. Did a fair amount of damage on the way out also.

    I bet there is more than one boat owner who was more than glad to collect a big fat insurance check. You know what they say; if it flys, floats or fvcks it's cheaper to rent.

    The morage place I'm sure got some nice new docks out of the deal and payment for empty slots for quite a while.

    I doubt there was much if any damage done to the big ship. Minimal at best.

    Boat insurance? Lucky if you get 60%.

    The ships captain/Master will be held accountable even if the port Pilot was on board .Its the captains responsibility to relieve the Pilot of command if its evident that the ship is danger. The guy that appears on the stern port side is more likely the pilot .
