Mental gymnastics. I guess no one thought perhaps she shouldn't have run the ship aground. Just sayin'
Right... this is some high level cope.
I don't even know how this could be a mistake. Aren't these ships equipped with depth sounding equipment? Heck 19 foot boats that draw 12 inches of water have them.
'It could of happened to any lesbeeun Captain attempting to parallel park !'
Good point.
They GPS charts in addition to all that. They should not have been anywhere near that area. Even locals on the shore were visually tracking the ship and able to tell it was too close to this known hazard.
Besides, aren't reefs protected areas? WTF were they doing there? Trying to sink the ship? Destroy the reef? Pollute the water with diesel fuel and oil?
