    Another joystick holder blindly relying on Google maps. I swear, they'll just let anyone drive a ship these days...

    Still stuck. They are now saying it may be Monday before it is removed. It is costing more than $4 million per hour in revenue losses.

    Ships deciding to bypass the canal and sail around the Horn of Africa may have bigger problems.
    Pirates in that area will be waiting.

    Apparently the GPS history from the navigation shows the ship traced out the pattern of a dick and balls on the screen :biggrin_2559::biggrin_2559::biggrin_2559::biggrin_2559::biggrin_2559::biggrin_2559::biggrin_2559::biggrin_2559::biggrin_2559:

    Ya'll gotta look it up for yourselves. The forum censors the p word. Any links posted won't work.

    The wind supposedly blew this ship around, kinda like truckers and winds.
    They are now saying that there are at least 20 ships of livestock that are going to be hung up waiting.
     
    Coffey and Dave_in_AZ Thank this.
