摘要: While visibility is the most important thing in any wheel-house, there are some vessel operators that apparently aren't aware of this. Accidents have been caused by vessel operators who turned off wheelhouse electronics because they didn't know how to dim the screens. "Turned them right off and then ran into something, instead of reading the manual to know how to dim them-one of the first things you learn," said Metal Craft Marine's Bob Clark. At least two of those accidents involved Metal Craft boats. In one case, a Firestorm 30 fireboat hit a 10' high break wall at the mouth of a canal. The fireboat sped through an anchorage at high speed, hit the break wall, and shot up in the air and went over the wall. The boat was destroyed because of "the stupidity of not knowing how to dim the lights on the screens," said Clark. The helmsman was charged with reckless driving and fined $89. The $700,000 boat was totaled.
