''A Coast Guard C-130 transport plane based out of Kodiak,
Alaska has dropped a liferaft near the ship as a precaution
in case the ship starts sinking and is orbiting the ship and
in radio contact with the Cougar Ace's crew.''

Don't they have their own life boat?



No, missed that? BTW, my buddy can haul 450,000 lbs, and
has.

They should, but it may be hard to launch it while listing 90 degrees.
Here is yesterdays picture. They expect the ship to sink.

That pic shows just how little draft they have compared to
what's above the water line. Any word on what caused it?

No not yet, my guess is the engineer FUed and screwed up on ballesting.
Maybe pumped all the fuel to one side ect...Once I asked the engineer
to provide salt water thru the fire system to wash the deck, and he
filled the bilge, almost to the flywheels 6-7 ft. No telling.
I bet some insurance company is boo hooin big time.

Don't know. Guess the company discovered a way to get nationl exposure
and free advertising.
