| 摘要： | When an engine room fire broke out on the Staten Island Ferry Sandy Ground shortly before 5 p.m. on Dec. 22, a cold, rainy afternoon, it could have been a disaster. Instead, it was a textbook example of how mariners, working together, kept everyone and everything safe. The 330'×70' Sandy Ground, the newest Staten Island Ferry built at Eastern Shipbuilding Group in Florida, went into service in June 2022. It was on a routine 5 '/2-mile passage from the Whitehall terminal in Lower Manhattan to St. George, Staten Island, with 868 passengers aboard. Part way though the trip, crew saw fire in the engine room. They immediately evacuated, closed off the space and released 3M Novec 1230 fire protection fluid, a clean agent fire extinguishant, which effectively put the fire out, said Capt. Barry Torrey, assistant commissioner for ferry operations for the New York City Department of Transportation (NYCDOT). Torrey worked with Sandy Ground Capt. Joseph Ajar, and the 15-member crew by cell phone during the incident. |
