> The video witnesses the attempts made by the captain of Greek NEL LINES Ferries ‘THEOFILOS’ in Myrina’s harbour (Lemnos Island,Greece) to safely anchor in an afternoon of horor, after the ferry dragged the anchor of a fuel carrier ship (already anchored) about 150meters away from dock and towards Greek Navy ship, escaping a collision last minute !

Whenever I think some American crewed ship is doing something crazy I think of all of the foreign ships where crazy is an everyday occurrence.
