freighters travel in straight lines. they haul stuff from 1 port to another. they drink too much fuel to so much as change their speed, let alone weave all over the place. a freighter behaving like that is not hauling freight.

It is hard to understand how something like this could happen in this high tech world today.
The real deal here is that some good and dedicated souls lost their lives far too soon. Say a prayer for them and their loved ones, the rest will work itself out in time, it is after all the smaller part of this. Your son, your brother, your father, your partner, would change how one would look at this. Easy here boys, respect is due.

I cant see the plimsoll lines so hard to judge, even then it depends upon ballast which they often pump some out in order to make harbor. Looks to be as fully loaded as the ones I see in the Houston ship channel in terms of stack height.
