Wow I'm suprised the 1st boat it hit didn't sink, it almost rolled over.
Can you say crunch!
That was painful to watch.

I'll bet someone on the bridge was thinking, "Perhaps we should have hired a second tug boat?"

Followed by creative re-invention of the host language ( whatever it is ).
 
Ouch is right...That is a nightmare. Hope nobody got crushed....
 
The freighters screws were turning, it is amazing the smaller boats didn't get sucked down.
Looked like toy boats in a bathtub.
 
Oh, Britanic, are you in trouble if your wife sees this! Seriously, you'd think a tugboat captain and a freighter captain would have some concept of how to turn a boat without wrecking everything in the bay. Hy
 
"Maybe no one will notice."

Is that a pilot boat alongside ? Or liquor delivery .
 
What on earth is that bulk carrier doing any where near that tiny marina in what looks like a secondary river channel?! Looks to me like it broke loose and was in the process of being rescued. Wish I understood Norwegian. Can anyone translate the reportage?
 
There were two guys at the Passenger deck Railing. Both were still there when the crunching started too.
It appears there is room for better Communication devices.
 
Wonder if their insurance, if any, paid up? Wonder if both Captains, tug and ship, lost their licenses?
