that’s only plausible if the ship was within 1000 meters, which should never have occurred. And he was going slow too, as evidenced by the fact the Fitz was not cut in two.

the Fitz should have ensured a full nautical mile of separation no matter what the other captain said. and notwithstanding any other circumstances.

It appears you are correct, and according to the new timeline shown in the above two charts, I stand corrected.

Assuming that anyone was awake on the bridge.

I don’t believe that would be a viable assumption, considering the circumstances.
