I would expect an “all hands on deck” before another ship got close enough to collide.

The Fitz’s ECDIS NAV alarms must have been blaring on the bridge and CIC as soon as both ships’ moving havens intersected. Supposedly, that gives you plenty of time to execute collision avoidance regardless of the other vessel’s maneuvers.

But then, remember when GPS was going to solve everything?
