So how would the ships officers communicate with the crew?It’s unlikely that the crew would be fluent in English, but the officers would.

The pilot wasn’t in control either. The ship was disabled and dead in the water.The captain wasn't in command or control of the ship at the time of the accident. The harbor pilot was.
You obviously do not understand how currents affect ships of any size.So ships lose their weight and 100000 tons gets moved around by 8moh currents. Notice also that boat changed movement and then was steadfast until impact
So didn’t answer but did manage an”I know better”You obviously do not understand how currents affect ships of any size.
Currents will turn even the biggest ships in several directions.So didn’t answer but did manage an”I know better”
Depends on weight, speed, direction and other which would determine a drastic change in bow to stern movement of a powerless drifting vessel. Yes current is a factor yet all depending in that situation.Currents will turn even the biggest ships in several directions.
UhSo how would the ships officers communicate with the crew?
BTW, the ship's pilot was a Ukrainian fellow.
Under the current geopolitical circumstances, terrorism cannot be ruled out.
No, the pilot was not from Ukraine. That has been discussed a few times in this thread already.BTW, the ship's pilot was a Ukrainian fellow.

The article you linked to says nothing about the pilot's nationality. They do go out of their way to refer to him as a "Maryland pilot" numerous times, which is curious. I did see an AP article that says both pilots are US citizens, and the captain and crew are Indian.No, the pilot was not from Ukraine. That has been discussed a few times in this thread already.
A frantic three minutes: How the shipâs pilot tried to prevent Key Bridge collapse
A Maryland pilot was in command of navigating the Dali in the three minutes before it hit the Key Bridge.www.thebaltimorebanner.com
MD Pilots are the best of the best. Someone can't just up and decide one day they want to be one. It takes more than 10 years of training and education to meet the requirements to apply for the Pilot's program (which is another 5 years of training and education).The article you linked to says nothing about the pilot's nationality.

Lets give credit where credit is due.......Turns out that on inspection, the propulsion system was flagged.
That ship should have never been allowed to enter the port in the first place!
Who's job is it to prevent this kind of shipwreck?
So he was a Marylandian rather than a Ukrainian?The article you linked to says nothing about the pilot's nationality.

I stand corrected.No, the pilot was not from Ukraine. That has been discussed a few times in this thread already.
