| 摘要： | As the National Transportation Safety Board will tell you, "Early and frequent communication, both external and internal to the vessel, is an effective measure in averting accidents." But just because you've got the equipment for it, that's only part of the navigating safely scheme. The remaining part is knowing how and when to use your radios. Two incidents show that's not totally understood. The first example involves the collision on the Lower Mississippi River at mile 126 near Hahnville, La., between the bulk carrier Century Queen, going upriver on June 8, 2019, to load rice, and the towboat Katylin Marie heading downstream to pick up barges. A passing arrangement was never established, in part because the pilot of the Katyiin Marie did not respond. Thus, the Century Queen struck the Katyiin Marie, resulting in three injuries, and 8,954 gals, of the towboat's diesel fuel going into the Mississippi River. The towboat had about $1 million in damages and the Century Queen over $380,000 damages. |
