Handling a mid size container ship


published on 26 June 2020 336 -

Found on YouTube. Created by "SMR Pilot"
"Mizar" is a 165 LOA containership, which follows a liner route between the caribbean and the US.
It has a fixed pitch propeller and a bow thruster, which makes it easier to handle. This maneuver consisted of basically just pulling her off the dock and then doing a 160 turn.
