I guess he's lucky his inebriated state didn't inspire him to do a cannonball dive into the ocean.

He sounds like more of a booze enthusiast than a sailing enthusiast.

Well, that can’t be good for the windlass. I wonder how much it costs to replace one of the size found on a cruise ship.

And how can this not be considered anything other than willful intent to do damage to a vessel, and endanger the lives of both crew and passengers?

20 years is a good start. I’d say hit him with both the $250,000 fine and 20 years. Forced prison gay sex can be very instructional - that will teach him the error of his ways in a language even he can understand.

Son, dropping anchors in drunken stupors is no way to go through life.

For some reason, I’m reminded of the cruise-line commercial where the spokesman’s up on the bridge, sounding the whistle (too much), and the captain finally gets tired of it and orders him “Get out.”

Son, when the booze starts leading you into a potential 20 and 250 federal sentence...you have a drinking problem.

That’s why no one invites him to parties. He’s such an anchor.

Well, that would have been cheaper, and more of a public service...

Just saying.

The penalty for doing stupid stuff needs to be increased.

The same holds true for Private Manning who supposedly is the person behind wikileaks. Manning should be court martialled promptly and, if convicted, shot at sunrise.

The USS Brewton dropped its anchor at the pier in Djibouti..after I recommended they should not..there is lots of junk down there I told em..this was to the XO.

They stayed 3 days..the morning of departure..an attempt was made to raise the anchor..it would not budge.

Received a call on the Embassy radio..please go to the Brewton..the Captain would like to talk with me..lol.

What happened is another story.

The bigger issue, is how was it that a drunken passenger was ABLE to get into a restricted area and do something that put the ship at risk?

David Allan Coe came to mind:

“I was drunk, the day my mom, got out of prison...”

This version:

“I was drunk, the day I dropped, the anchor on a cruise...”

OK - I am not a poet.
