Three ships. That seems odd. It is. Two or four would have been even.

I'm guessing the reporter is talking about some sort of fuel slick. Or some other fluid, like Orange Oil, or hydrolic fluid.

No-no !
Winkin' and Blinken' were two little eyes
And Nod was a little head
And the old shoe that carried them through
Was a wee one's trundle bed.
Please don't ask me how many years ago I read that stupid poem-or why I remember it now !

Well, you tell that xenophobic "Old Sea Captain" that it was definitely the dredges' fault. IMHO, Dredges should operate as far out of the ship channel as possible and keep out of the way of global commerce and foreign-flag vessels, crewed by hard-working people of color from foreign lands who are just doing the jobs American seamen will not do.
That OJ containership was on its way to deliver desperately needed Vitamin C-laden drinks to women, children, gays, and members of federally protected minority groups who run a gravely disproportionate risk of scurvy in our cruelly capitalist, racist, homophobic society.
George Bush, at fault again!

Three tubs in a bay,
The dredger, the vessel, the Orange Sun freighter,
If their boats had been stronger
My story would have been longer.

You think they are looking at skid marks to determine fault in this accident.
