[Public-List] A collision at sea can ruin your whole day

[George Dinwiddie]

My father told me that he learned in the Navy that "a collision at sea 
can ruin your whole day."

«A Mexican navy sailing ship hit the Brooklyn Bridge on Saturday during 
a promotional tour in New York City, the top of its three masts slamming 
into the iconic span and partially collapsing as the boat floated in the 
East River.

New York City Mayor Eric Adams said 19 people were injured in the crash, 
four seriously, but the 142-year-old bridge was spared major damage. The 
cause of the collision was under investigation.»
