Mexican Navy Ship Slams into Brooklyn Bridge: 2 Dead, 17 Injured in NYC Tragedy Update
NEW YORK, May 18, 2025 — The celebration of a Mexican Navy tall ship Cuauhtemoc turned into a maritime disaster Saturday night when it collided with Brooklyn Bridge. Two people were killed and 17 injured, including two seriously.Last night, the incident happened at 8:20 pm as the training ship was navigating the East River and preparing to leave New York City. The 2,200-ton vessel, adorned with lights and a huge national flag, was approaching the Brooklyn Bridge at the time of the incident. It struck the bridge, tearing off the tops from its three masts, which ranged in height between 147 and 160 feet.The wooden masts crashed and cracked, shocking the spectators along the riverfront.
Denmark Launches Data-Driven Remote Pilotage
With approval from the Danish Emergency Management Agency, DanPilot and Danelec are now initiating a test program for remote pilotage—the first of its kind in the world. The approval marks a significant step towards a technological paradigm shift, opening new possibilities for safety, climate action, and operational efficiency in the maritime sector.After six years of development, Denmark is taking a step towards a more efficient and digital maritime infrastructure. The test program created by DanPilot and Danelec allows pilots to guide ships from land, using only advanced data transmitted directly from the vessels.
Bayesian Took Less Than 15 Seconds to Heel Irrecoverably
The UK Marine Accident Investigation Branch (MAIB) has released its interim report on the foundering of the Bayesian, saying the yacht may have been vulnerable to high winds and that such winds may have been evident at the time of the accident.On 19 August 2024, the UK registered large sailing yacht Bayesian foundered in high winds 0.5 nautical miles south-east of the port of Porticello, Italy. There were 12 guests and 10 crew on board at the time the vessel sank. Six of the guests and one crew member died.
Scarborough FPU's Topsides and Hull Come Together in Major Engineering Feat (Video)
Woodside Energy’s Scarborough energy project has achieved a major engineering milestone with the joining together of the topsides and hull for the Floating Production Unit (FPU).Constructed separately at two different fabrication yards in China, the joining of the two mega-structures is a significant step forward for the Scarborough energy project as it progresses towards first liquefied natural gas (LNG) cargo, targeted for the second half of 2026.The floatover required precise planning and extensive collaboration by all stakeholders. Teams from Woodside, McDermott, QMW and COSCO worked closely on the fabrication of the structures and to safely bring them together.
Satellites Help NOC Track Tidal Change for Safer Port Operations
Scientists at the UK’s National Oceanography Centre (NOC) in Liverpool have used satellite data to create insight into the Mersey River that will help port operators be smarter about managing complex navigation channels. Through a project focused on Liverpool’s famous river and funded by the UK Space Agency, NOC’s scientists showed that changes in areas exposed at low tide can be mapped from space.The project, run in partnership with the Channel Coastal Observatory (CCO) and Peel Ports Group, means port operators could now pre-empt sand or mud moving and blocking their navigation channels, reducing larger remediation works.
