Things got more complicated with the release of the track followed by the ACX Crystal.

Now I am not so sure the Fitzgerald was at fault.

In any event I am thankful that it was a relatively low speed collision as the Law of Gross Tonnages always applies in a collision at sea.

For those not familiar, the Law of Gross Tonnages says that the ship with the greater gross tonnage wins.
