3. the boat never slowed down because there was no one to pilot it.
This was unbelievable CRIMINAL negligence on the part of the crew to leave the pilot unattended. I just read the Times article. This was the assistant captain. WHERE the FUCK was the captain? (watching the pre-game show for the ALCS no doubt.) If the captain were anywhere near the pilot house he would have recognized the boat was umanned a good 5 minutes before impact. which is the point where the engines are normally slowed and then reversed to begin the approach to the slip. I can't fucking stand it when such a stupid needless accident happens due to such fucking unbelievable negligence. The goddamned pilot had the right idea to take his own life afterwards.... too bad it won't bring any of the dead back or grow some new limbs. Oh did I mention that I am pissed off?
