“First Mate” — lots of guys are thinking that.

Well, if she had been piloting the boat through the canal instead of sitting around in Alexandria, the incident might have been avoided.

In the words of Lavrentiy Beria (wokized to be gender neutral) “ “Show me the person and I’ll find you the crime.”

Another PR scam .
This lady must be planting PR their phony story .
She is full of BS .
She seems to have Numerous Glam Shots to Spread .
She must be tired of working on a ship.
Another con job by PR conman .

That is a very inspirational article! You’ve got to hand it to her for persevering and getting her First Mate’s license against a lot of opposition. It was awful somebody wrote the false story about her causing the canal blockage as a way to attach her, but it that backfired and made her more famous. My sister and her daughter ran into similar obstacles in their careers and overcame them.

Has the captain’s identity ever been revealed? I haven’t seen it mentioned in any of the coverage and I confess my first thought was that it would be embarrassing to the keepers of PC. Remember our own recent USN foul-ups: it was finally revealed that the ships were commanded by women. But in this case it does indeed look like Egyptian misogyny at work, and this glamour puss “first mate” is using it as an opportunity to spread her headshots all over social media.

Marwa Elselehdar says she feels encouraged by some of the response she's had to the false rumours
