The man with the knive was in a deadly position.What if the line breaks at the subject side? Its a missile coming to you.

With a lower speed, the tugboat is kept better under control.

Plain and simple to much headway on the sailing ship he should have been down to 2 to 3 knots, speed is a problem in these situations as you have just witnessed or better still let the stern tug go earlier he was not needed when the vessel had made his turn, also the bow tug should have been fast in the starboard lead ready for the starboard swing and I can't believe he didn't break adrift bringing his towrope tight that quick the Skipper was lucky there...all in all the whole job was to fast and manic which will always create problems sometime's even fatal.

Nice work skip! That sinks a lot of tugs.

why were they going so fast in the first place, were they in a race ? good grief !

настоящий Русский народ ...крушение корабля, а все свистят и празднуют !

Always have an Axe on Hand! 😲

It just happens so quick. A sailor always needs a sharp knife on hand. I always hate it when there are so many witnesses.

It would take a lot to capsize a tug boat they won't capsize that easily. The draft of a tug boat goes deep below the water line which would make it more stable

I'm not a seafarer but it looks like speed of current and/or ship was simply too strong for the tug. Maybe tide going out?

It needs much more than this for that thug to be in danger. Also, the crew is great!

Крузенштерн

Looks like a basic fuk up.been on tow boats 45 years ,this is a first year mistake.sad to see a good boat run bad.

TUG IS GIRTING, NO GOG ROPE, TO KEEP THE TOW ROPE AT THE STERN OF THE TUG, TO PREVENT GIRTING... TUG SKIPPERS FAULT, ON CONFIGURATION OF TOW ROPE... NONE OF THE TUG CREW SKIPPERS OR DECKHANDS, ON BOTH TUGS NOT WEARING PFD'S, IS ABSOLUTELY UNBELIEVABLE... THIS SITUATION IS EXACTLY WHY THEY MUST BE WORN CORRECTLY 🤬🤬🤬

Did he not have time to unhook rope from the bollard?

О, Круенштерн))

Why did that Russian woman say "Shit" in English?

Allowing the line to hold fast instead of keeping it on a slipping configuration on the cleat, they almost lost it.

If they’d thribbled the gornwarbler astern of the grimmyshank this would never have happened. (Thirty years sweeping the streets.)

I watched it happen live. Tugboats also had problems bringing the Kruzenstern in..

Speaking as a former boatswainsmate and able seaman, those tow lines seemed awfully small diameter. Granted they were being stretched but Ive seen many a towline or mooring line stretched and they were never that small. Guess though in this case it was a good thing as the deck seaman was able to quickly cut it loose with no injury to himself.

I’m not going rock climbing with those two

Spring gebruiken ,kan je nooit opgetrokken worden.🎉

That rope was crazy strong. Looked too thin to hold that weight.

1 the tugboats are navy tugboats and not familiar with harlingen (NL) you have to take a very sharp turn to leave the harbour 2 the towing line of the leading tug is to long it takes a eternity to go from the PS bow to the SB side bow of the sailing ship ( when altering course ) 3 the last means he has to increase power to catch the bow of the sailing boat as not to hit the beacon on the exit at the breakwaters 4 the increase of speed is to much for the stern tug and she can't put herself strait anymore under the wire even with 2 propellors 5 the small black tugboat with the red funnel are the guy's with experience as they do the fruitships and the shipyard jobs 6 is the navy involved time for beer and chips the crew of the stern tug was lucky cutting the wire under tension can be letal

Textbook!

What a cluster-f&^%! That entire maneuver occurred at about 3 times the normal speed that such evolutions are performed. I doubt the communication between the various vessels was good, either. One thing I should note - it's good practice, though often not followed - to close up the watertight doors in the cabin of a tug that its towing in that manner for precisely that reason. If a tug "trips" like that one did, it happens fast. The only real danger to the tug in this case is water ingress - that pull, at that speed, wasn't going to actually capsize the tug. Good job by the crew, BTW - and an unusually small line allowed to happen. On a US tug, or at least the ones I know - it would have been a line at least 50mm in diameter - a completely different matter.

Why didn't they just undo the wraps from the bollards???

and thats why the bulkhead door has " keep closed at sea" written on it

This is a good example of poor radio discipline. It could've been avoided very easily. The tug on the stern of the Krusenstern should not have put ten turns around the bitts, thus making casting off time-consuming. When disaster was starting to loom, the skipper of that tug should have given the order to cast off the warp, thus avoiding embarrassment on all sides. If this manoeuvre had been discussed face to face BEFORE casting off her land lines, with radio comms clear between the three skippers, it would have been much more controlled and calmer, and would have saved the appearance of the cut-all knife. In the stern tug, the crew should have known better than to put ten turns on. Three would have held fast, crew holding the coils in his hand, ready to cast off. Easy.

Με μια κίνηση πίσω αριστερά δεν θα γλύτωνε το σχοινί;; 😊

where is the GOG line ?????????????????????????????????????????/

I saw nothing capsize.

I love the juxtaposition of everyone smiling and waving on the big ship and these dudes in serious danger of capsizing only 50 or 60' away.

Well sounds cocky but it looks more dramatic then it was and imho the action of the crew was a bit overkill. Sure she is sideways, and sure there was some water om the deck. But the angle of the line on the H Bit to the ship is to steep and high to capsize the tug! The gravity of a tug is super low with the big engine and the line was not low enough.

Tall ship deep shit

Navigating a hazardous course way too fast, there's no need to be in this hurry.

When we were departing Aden in 1962, for Mombassa on HMS Albion, we pulled a Tug over and 4 Arab Seamen lost their lives. It happened so quickly no one had time to react, plus with having all the Skylights open it went down like a stone. Its always dangerous when Tugs are manoeuvring a large vessel underway.

A gog or (gob) rope further aft would have avoided girting the tug. High speed ,changing course suddenly and lack of communications all contribute to these occurrences.

The tug got tripped. Many things, unaware, no knowledge, lack of care, stupidity, etc, etc on the ships' captain and pilot and tugboat captain. Just all-around dumbasses.

Great job! Things go wrong!

What capsizing?

Команде буксира ❤

The old school "down haul snotter" seems to be forgotten here?

The problem is....who was managing the ship's manoeuvring??? Probably pilot or ship's Master. I'm a tugboat Master and I talk about my experience...a ship secured to tugboat lines MUST to act considering tugboat's abilities in order to have a safe and effective aid during manoeuvre . It means to regulate speed and rate of turning. Unfortunately few pilots and Captains have been on the tugboat side. Congratulations to very reactive crew of stern tug

from my point of view, and that is as a tug skipper doing this manoeuvre frequently with a twin screw tug, and at roughly the same speed, the tow rope should have been on the head of the tug this is a safer bet with speed, alternatively with a stern tow setup, a gob rope should have been used, this moves the pivot point further aft and reduces the chance of girting. But my first choice with a tug that shape would have been to have the rope on the bow of the tug.

Lucky lucky lucky 😱😱😱

Miscommunication.

Most tight manuovers with ships are done at a snails pace. That ship has a lot of windage and it was blowing so They may have been forced to make a risky turn.

my favourite 2 training ships are the Kruzenstern and the dar mlodziezy . huge .
