What happened to your captain and the person in charge at the time of the accident?

Nothing, not at fault. Our anchor did not drag and none of the mooring lines parted.

The Chief who was OOD in-port sounded general quarters as soon as he heard the mooring lines part and the ferry start to moor. We couldn't have maneuvered if we had been sitting there waiting for it.

It would have been a very different matter if we had been underway.
